Mobile health screenings from UToledo Health in your northwest Ohio backyard

The mobile health unit will travel directly to the Toledo community, providing community members with convenient access to health services free of charge including:

• Health screenings

The mission of the UToledo Health mobile health unit is to improve the human condition by expanding access to medical care. To do so, the Mobile Health Unit provides prevention, assessment and health education services to underserved, socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals throughout northwest Ohio.

The 37-foot-long custom-built mobile clinic includes two exam rooms, a restroom and a small waiting area.  

Accessing services at the UToledo Health Mobile Health Unit

UToledo Health is committed to expanding access to healthcare in the Toledo community and surrounding region. Our goal is to provide care to every patient regardless of their ability to pay. To help facilitate this, ID and insurance will be collected from patients if they have it, but it is not required. Whether a patient has insurance or not, these services are free, and co-pays are not required.

Leadership

“Some patients may not have transportation, some may not be able to get time off work, some may have financial barriers, including a lack of insurance, and others may have limited healthcare options in their neighborhoods,” Shabpiray said. “Whatever the reason someone hasn’t had access, it’s critically important we’re able to reach them and help get them on a path to better health.” - Dr. Hoda Shabpiray, Medical Director of the UToledo Health mobile health unit
