One thought on “Free health services at McFadden School today”
  1. The coalition of community clinics are a supposed non-profit that sets corrupt doctors up in clinics to robe tax payers…all of these so called patients are illegal immigrants and the children of illegal immigrants and what they are doing is getting more of them on the Cal optima and health families roll call!!!!

    ITS A SCAM!
