Both agencies facilitate complete patient navigation for anyone who needs further testing or treatment after the initial exam.
Additional Clinic Care
By appointment only, dental and vision appointments are scheduled based on provider availability.

Cancer Screenings
Ruth's Place Clinic partners with Moncrief Cancer Institute and Texas Health Resources to host state-of-the-art health screenings. Both partners have fully-enclosed mobile screening units equipped to screen for skin, prostate, Hepatitis C, and colon cancer.
On-Site Lab & Medications
Fasting and other blood work can be performed on-site, as can most lab tests. If more extensive tests are required, patients are sent to an outside lab. Donations from the patient are encouraged, to help us with the cost of this service.
Medication samples, including over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, are stored in the Clinic's secured medication room. Donations from the patient are encouraged, to help us provide this service.
Partnerships with Lake Granbury Medical Center and Touchstone Imaging provide for diagnostic imaging that may be ordered (x-ray, ultrasound, CT, and MRI).
Pharmaceutical Assistance
Ruth's Place Clinic is sensitive to the high cost of many prescription medicines. Our providers work hard to prescribe the "$4 drugs" offered at local pharmacies when possible.
When specialty medications are required, connections are made with drug manufacturers and humanitarian organizations to obtain them at lower costs for patients who qualify for this program.
Food Pantry
The Food Pantry provides food on Tuesday afternoons. Please contact the Outreach Center office for more information on applying for the food pantry service.
