Our clinic will continue to see established patients of Dignity Health Medical Group – Sequoia, including adults and children over 14 years of age. This includes patients with PPO plans, Medicare, and Health Plan of San Mateo.

Patients without insurance, or with out-of-network coverage, will be required to pay out-of-pocket for services.

  • Our staff are available to help connect patients without insurance to the Health Coverage Unit at San Mateo County Health who can help determine if they are eligible for available health coverage programs.
