Medial Ministries LLC operates a healthcare clinic. It primarily serves as a general outpatient center, offering evaluations and treatments for various medical conditions. The clinic provides general healthcare services, typically through family medicine practitioners, and caters to patients of all ages. It focuses on essential care but is not specifically known for specialized medical services.
Representative Joseph Jefferson Jr. stated, “I am so impressed with the efforts being made by Medical Ministries; they are helping those who are unable to help themselves. We will continue to find resources and fund resources to help the people of South Carolina.”
Bonnie Banks stated, “You don't understand the impact this will make. There are so many people within the rural communities the don't understand that they have to have some quality healthcare. Some of our patients have not seen a doctor in ten years.”
