Laramie’s underserved, uninsured population — numbering around 4,000 — needs medical care.

And with new Laramie Downtown Clinic facilities at 611 S. Second, they will receive care as good as any in Laramie, donors say.

“I am impressed with the all-around facilities here,” Nancy English, a member of Zonta International, said Thursday at an open house for the new facility. The clinic, she said, will afford patients up-to-date and professional care.

“I think, coming in here with an ailment, it is spirit-lifting,” English said. “If you were to walk in here feeling (sick), you’d feel better just being here.”
