About the Student-Run Clinics |

All proceeds from the HeartBeat event go to UC Davis student-run medical clinics and the Bayanihan Clinic, which provide FREE primary health care to underserved populations of Sacramento. All of the clinics are staffed by volunteer UC Davis medical students, undergraduates, and area physicians. |
