CommonGood Medical: A Place to Belong
At CommonGood Medical, we believe every person deserves to be seen, known, and cared for, regardless of income or insurance status. We are a trusted, faith-based clinic serving uninsured adults and children in Collin County. Our team offers care that meets physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, showing compassion and excellence in every interaction.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide access to quality whole-person healthcare by fostering healthy community through Christ-centered love.
The Need
In Collin County, 110,000 hardworking neighbors fall into the healthcare gap, unable to afford insurance, yet ineligible for Medicaid. Without access to preventive care, many carry silent burdens of pain, chronic illness, or untreated conditions that quietly shape their daily lives.
Our Response
Recently, one of our patients finished her appointment, and as she was checking out, we asked how everything went. She smiled and said, “It was good, very good! I didn’t think I could feel like this again. I’ve been battling depression and had given up. I thought this is just how life was supposed to be. I stopped trying. And then I found you. It’s so wonderful! The only thing bothering me today is a cold.” This is what we strive to offer all of our patients by providing a true medical home to more than 1,000 patients each year, offering comprehensive primary care, including chronic disease management, optometry, mental health counseling, well-woman care, lab work, and access to affordable prescriptions. With a team of licensed medical professionals and dedicated volunteers, we ensure every patient is met with dignity and respect.
Our Impact
In 2025, we served over 1,000 patients and provided over 5,500 patient visits. We welcomed over 400 new patients in 2025. Since opening in 2017, we’ve delivered more than 22,000 appointments, helping our neighbors reclaim their health, confidence, and hope for the future.
CommonGood Medical has seen more than 145% increase in total appointments per year while the number of unduplicated patients seen at CommonGood Medical has grown more than 101% in the past 5 years.
Our Core Values
Abiding, Belonging, Compassion, Dignity & Respect, Excellence, Innovate.

CommonGood Thrift
CommonGood Thrift was established in 2025 as a social enterprise to support the mission and long-term sustainability of CommonGood Medical. Our donation center is currently accepting donations with plans for the store opening in late 2026. Through the generous donation and resale of quality goods, the thrift store will provide an ongoing source of funding that helps make healthcare accessible to uninsured and underserved neighbors. In addition to supporting the clinic's operations, CommonGood Thrift promotes environmental stewardship by giving donated items a second life while creating meaningful opportunities for community engagement and volunteer service.
Our mission is to provide access to quality whole-person healthcare by fostering healthy community through Christ-centered love.
CommonGood Medical is powered by the generosity of volunteers who share their time, talents, and hearts to serve our neighbors. While medical professionals are essential to our mission, we also rely on a diverse team of volunteers serving as patient advocates, interpreters, front desk assistants, administrative support, thrift volunteers, event volunteers, and many other roles. These dedicated individuals help create a welcoming and compassionate experience for every patient we serve. Anyone interested in joining our volunteer team is encouraged to visit our website (http://www.CommonGoodMedical.org) to learn more about available opportunities and complete a volunteer interest form.
Community support extends beyond volunteering. CommonGood Medical gratefully receives donations through clinic supply drives hosted by businesses, churches, civic groups, schools, and individuals. Donations of medical supplies, personal hygiene items, and household essentials help us meet practical needs for our patients and families. Through our patient resource area, individuals can access personal care items and other necessities that support their overall well-being. Current wish lists and donation needs can be found on the Donate page of our website.
We are also blessed by community partners who help us celebrate and encourage our volunteers throughout the year. Businesses, organizations, churches, and individuals provide meals, snacks, gift cards, appreciation gifts, and other acts of kindness that recognize the commitment of our volunteer team. These partnerships help ensure our volunteers feel valued as they continue making quality healthcare accessible to uninsured and underserved members of our community.
CommonGood Medical is founded upon living out the gospel of Christ and offering quality health care to our most economically vulnerable neighbors while seeking a culture of diversity, belonging, and self-reflection.
Since 2017, it has been our goal to be centered on Christ, recognized by our love for one another and for our most vulnerable neighbors. Our clinic has embraced a set of Biblical values that provide a foundation and continued guidance towards our mission. We are dedicated to being a unified, not uniformed community -- characterized by mutual respect and committed to love, justice, humility, and a genuine desire to glorify God. We have seen first-hand the disparate realities that marginalized groups of people, all loved by God, experience.
We believe that:
• All are image-bearers of God.
• All are equally valued and loved by Him.
• All have a role in serving God’s purposes and reflecting His magnificent kingdom.
We encourage all working or volunteering in our clinic to:
• Address systems, structures and cultural norms that have contributed to oppression by building genuine community through the power of the Holy Spirit.
• Love our neighbors as ourselves by being vigilant in identifying and addressing systemic inequities in our clinic in honest and restorative ways.
• Acknowledge the suffering of all oppressed, marginalized, and minimalized and by doing so, allowing the things that break God’s heart to break ours.
• Elevate the contributions of under-represented minorities and people of color by creating environments that solicit and encourage the perspectives, insights, and cultural contributions of all, as image bearers of God.
• Give preference to others above ourselves, listening and empathizing in humility, not thinking of one’s self more highly than another.
• Actively seeking honest, transparent relationships with people different than ourselves, and that ultimately reflect God’s kingdom.
We commit, as an organization to:
• Attract and develop a diverse and talented Board, Staff, and Volunteers.
• Proactively engage all staff in learning by providing opportunities that address unconscious biases and encourage self-reflection.
