Luke’s House Program Manager
Luke’s House Clinic is a private, non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization providing free
medical and mental health services to those in need by volunteer physicians and nurses. Created in 2007
through a partnership of Rayne United Methodist Church (UMC) and Mt. Zion UMC, the clinic’s mission
is to be a place of medical and spiritual hope, health, and healing for Greater New Orleans, to provide
patient-centered volunteer experiences for students, and to open a doorway to long-term healthcare
solutions.
When it opened, Luke’s House saw an average of 10-15 patients at the weekly Tuesday evening
clinic. Since moving from Mt. Zion to its own building in the heart of Central City, that number has
doubled with the addition of a Thursday evening clinic. The clinic provides primary care in English and
Spanish for adults and children, mental health counseling, vaccinations, monthly eye and women’s
clinics, and prescription assistance. The clinic serves as a doorway to long-term care by referring patients
to medical “homes” or specialists for follow-up when necessary.
