The Wayne County Department of Health, Veterans and Community Wellness is teaming up with national organizers to offer a free medical, dental and vision care clinic at Detroit's Cobo Center this week.

The Motor City Medical Mission will run from Aug. 9-11 and is open to those who are homeless, uninsured or underinsured. You do not have to pre-register.

Dental services may include exams, cleanings, fillings, and extractions.

Free eye glasses, screenings, and refractions are available for those requiring optical care.

Medical care may include health exams, school physicals, consultations, chronic disease prevention, hypertension & diabetes counseling, and non-narcotic medications and prescriptions. Other essential services such as ultrasound, massage therapy, physical therapy, and legal consultations will be available.
