Dear Patients:
We deeply regret to inform you that we will be closing Clinic for the Cities at First Baptist Church in Wylie, First Baptist Church in Allen, and Clinic for the Cities in St. Thomas Catholic Church in Saginaw effective September 30, 2019. Unfortunately, after that date we will be unable to continue providing healthcare services or renew any prescriptions. This has not been an easy decision for us, as caring for you has been a great source of satisfaction and joy ever since we started providing this free service. Dr. Eugene Gicheru will be available by phone at 972-505-4003 through December 15th, 2019 to answer any questions about the transition of your healthcare but unfortunately, he will be unable to provide prescriptions or medical advice. Please arrange to place yourself under the care of another healthcare provider as soon as possible to ensure continuity of care.
