More about the Clinic
Siloam Family Health Center’s purpose is to provide affordable, high-quality health care to the uninsured and those who slip through the cracks in the health care system because of time, money and language barriers. Patients who are stressed financially may apply to a sliding fee scale to have their cost dramatically reduced.
Siloam opened its doors in 1991 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit ministry to live out the Biblical and historical commitment of the Church to care for the poor and the sick. Siloam’s statement of mission is to share the love of Christ by serving those in need through health care. All that we do is reflective of this mission.
More than 79% of Siloam’s patients are refugees and immigrants representing 100 different homelands coming from all over the Nashville area. Siloam, also, has an exciting mentoring program to area university medical students, interns, residents and others. This provides future health care professionals the opportunity to serve in a faith-based setting serving people who are marginalized by our health care system. More than 450 people from the community serve as physicians, nurse practitioners, physical and occupational therapists, nurses, interpreters and special project volunteers giving more than 15,000 hours annually. As our volunteers and staff reach out to an underserved population, we see our efforts impacting the cycle of poverty. Instead of poverty bringing sickness and sickness bringing poverty, we provide an opportunity for health and a message of hope.
The Staff We are a team of 26 committed Christian missionaries---physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, medical assistants, receptionists, volunteer team, fundraiser, administration staff and president/CEO.
