About Mile Square

Mile Square Health Center is committed to serving all residents of the city of Chicago, Rockford, Cicero, and the surrounding areas, especially those who are marginalized. Our patients are predominantly minorities, many of whom live at or below the Federal Poverty Level, have public insurance, or are uninsured. We see all patients regardless of their ability to pay. Care is provided on a sliding fee scale, which is based on family size and the Federal Poverty Level. The Mile Square system provides comprehensive primary care for children and adults of all ages through primary care clinics and school-based health centers.

Our service area covers most of the West and South Sides of Chicago, portions of Cicero, and the Rockford area.

Mile Square offers medical education programs for physicians, nurses, certified nurse midwives, pharmacy, social workers, and dental students while providing high-quality healthcare for the community. We continue to thrive and expand to meet the unmet healthcare needs throughout the Chicagoland area.

Mission

The mission of Mile Square Health Center is to provide holistic, quality health services in the midst of an underserved, urban community. The concept of holistic services includes not only to restore health, but also to prevent disease, promote healthy lifestyles, and provide personalized support to individuals and families.  

Four strategic pillars guide our organization:

  • Financial growth and acumen
  • Clinical excellence
  • Staff and patient satisfaction
  • Community engagement

To achieve these goals, our practice extends well beyond a “building” and into the heart of the community.
