About this clinic
Guadalupe Health Center is located in the town of Antonito, Colorado, and was opened in 1976. Guadalupe Health Center (GHC) was one of the first clinics established for Valley-Wide Health Systems, Inc. (Valley-Wide). The clinic has undergone several changes throughout its history, and was recently remodeled in 2011 that included many structural changes and technological improvements. At GHC we provide a safe and comforting atmosphere, and are dedicated to providing excellent patient care for you and your family. GHC primarily serves the rural population of Antonito and the surrounding Conejos County communities including: Mogote, Manassa, Romeo, and La Jara. Our clinic provides care to patients of all ages and of various backgrounds and socio-economic statuses, with special consideration for low-income families and migrant and seasonal agriculture workers. We are also happy to meet the needs of tourists and visitors including hunters, fisherman, and campers in the area. We offer primary preventative and chronic health care services to provide you with the knowledge and ability to manage your condition. Co-located behavioral health services are available on Mondays and Thursdays to provide counseling needs for all patients. Routine blood draws are available on Fridays on-site, by appointment, through our affiliation with LabCorp (Laboratory Corporation of America). We also offer both childhood and adult vaccinations. Family Planning services are available to provide you with options based upon individual beliefs and needs. Our clinic also offers FREE HIV screening services and a full spectrum of STD testing and treatment in a safe and confidential setting. Antonito Physical Therapy is co-located within the building, and available on Thursdays, to address physical therapy needs for you and your family . Our doctors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and physical therapists are dedicated to making sure all Valley-Wide patients receive individualized patient care, in a respectful and inclusive manner. We focus our efforts on providing excellent services to ensure our patients feel comfortable and continue to return to GHC for all of their needs. We treat our patients as individuals and value their safety, confidentiality and health care needs. At GHC, we take a proactive approach to your healthcare and are one of two clinics to implement a follow-up appointment log. This ensures that all patients receive a call back from one of our schedulers which allows us to schedule and confirm future appointments, providing clarity and continuity of on-going care.

Common Questions About Free and Low-Cost Clinics
General guidance for visitors. It is not medical advice and it does not describe Guadalupe Health Center's current policy — call the clinic to confirm anything below.
Is this clinic actually free?
Often not entirely. "Free clinic" usually means one of three things: a volunteer clinic with no charge, a community health center with a sliding fee scale based on household size and income, or a clinic that charges a small flat visit fee. A sliding scale can still leave a bill. Ask what the lowest tier costs before you book.
What if I have no income at all?
Most sliding-scale programs have a lowest tier for people with no income, and many accept a signed self-declaration when you have no pay stubs to show. Ask for the clinic's discount program by name and ask what proof they take. Being told "bring proof of income" does not mean you are turned away for having none.
What should I bring to a first visit?
Usually a photo ID, something showing your address, proof of income or a self-declaration, your insurance or Medicaid card if you have one, and a written list of your current medications and doses. Call ahead — requirements vary, and arriving without the right paperwork is the most common reason a first visit gets rescheduled.
Do I need insurance, or immigration documents?
Federally funded health centers serve patients regardless of insurance status and do not require proof of citizenship to provide care. Volunteer and charitable clinics set their own rules. If it matters to you, ask before your visit what they require and what they record.
Is dental care included?
Usually not, and this is the single most common disappointment. Dental is frequently a separate program with its own eligibility, its own waiting list, and a narrower service list — extractions and urgent pain may be covered while fillings, crowns, root canals, and dentures are not. Confirm that dental is offered at this specific location before travelling.
Can I get a prescription refilled here?
Most clinics require an appointment before they will refill anything, and a first appointment can be weeks out. If you are close to running out of a medication you cannot safely stop, say so when you call — say the medication name and how many days you have left. Ask your pharmacy at the same time; pharmacists can sometimes authorise a short emergency supply.
What if I need care today?
This directory cannot arrange care or pass a message to a clinic. For a medical emergency call 911. For a mental health or suicidal crisis call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). For something urgent but not an emergency, an urgent care clinic or a hospital emergency department must evaluate you regardless of ability to pay.
