Mercy Ministries of Laredo provides primary healthcare services to the neediest residents of Webb County who are looking for a doctor. Mercy’s doctors focus on prevention and control of chronic illness through education and patient compliance. Patients are coached to become advocates of their own health.

Mercy is not a free clinic. Patients make co-pays for their services based on the outcome of their financial screening. Ninety nine percent of our patients are uninsured and fall below federal poverty guidelines. We believe in providing mercy to all. Our services include:
