We are still feeling the excitement from our Next Chapter event earlier this week as we unveiled our new name and logo!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and for the incredible support and enthusiasm you’ve shown throughout this transition. We are honored by your encouragement and excited for all that lies ahead.

This rebrand is about much more than a new name and visual identity—it is a tribute to the extraordinary legacy of our founder, Dr. Lou Ann McAdams, who faithfully served as our volunteer medical director for 20 years. Her compassion, dedication, and unwavering commitment to caring for the uninsured have been the foundation of our organization from the very beginning.

As we continue to grow and expand our reach, we could not imagine a more meaningful way to honor her impact than by carrying her name forward. We look forward to building on that legacy and serving our community for years to come.

Thank you for being part of this next chapter with us. ❤️

Our new name, McAdams Free Clinic, is more than a change; it’s a tribute. Hear from our Executive Director on why this name is so meaningful to us.

“We may have changed our name and expanded our service area, but our mission remains unchanged: to provide high-quality healthcare at no cost to those who are uninsured and low-income. There is no better way to honor and communicate this enduring mission than by naming the clinic after Dr. Lou Ann McAdams, whose selflessness has shaped it from the very beginning—someone who has stood with us since day one and embodies the compassion and dedication we strive to offer every patient we serve.”
- Amy Carr, Executive Director

For Men’s Health Month, we’re reminding men that taking care of your health starts with showing up.

That can mean scheduling a checkup, asking questions, getting screened, talking about mental health, or reaching out before something becomes urgent.
Free and charitable clinics help reduce barriers to care by connecting patients to trusted support in their communities.

This month, encourage the men in your life to check in, speak up, and prioritize their health. 💙

"Yesterday, we shared the exciting news that Matthews Free Medical Clinic is now McAdams Free Clinic. Today, we're sharing the why behind the change.

First, our new name honors the legacy of Dr. Lou Ann McAdams: co-founder, longtime volunteer, and a guiding force behind our mission. Her compassion and leadership helped shape who we are today.

Furthermore, as we expand to serve five different counties, we want our name to more broadly reflect the many communities we empower.

While our name is changing, our commitment remains the same: to provide free, high-quality healthcare and to treat every patient with dignity and respect.

Because healthcare is about more than medicine.

"Today's the day: we’re proud to share an exciting new chapter in our story!

Since 2004, Matthews Free Medical Clinic has provided free, quality healthcare to low-income, uninsured individuals and families across Mecklenburg and Union counties, creating a true medical home for those who need it most.

As the need for care continues to grow, and as we expand to serve five counties this year, we’re embracing a new name and brand that reflect our vision for the future.

Introducing our new name and brand: McAdams Free Clinic

We're thrilled to share this big news with you and can't wait to share more throughout the month about the heart behind the change. 💙 For now, we just want to thank you for being part of our journey and for continuing with us into this next chapter.
