Racine, WI – Pillar Health is proud to announce the official opening of its newest location in Racine on Monday, July 21, 2025. Located at 930 Dr. Martin Luther King Dr., inside Julian Thomas Elementary School (Door #3), the new site is classified as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), providing accessible, affordable, and comprehensive care for everyone, offering a sliding fee discount program based on income and family size. The clinic will bring much-needed access to medical and behavioral health care providers in a neighborhood that lacks sufficient health care services compared to others.
“This project represents a major milestone in expanding healthcare access in Racine,” said Dr. Mary Ouimet, CEO of Pillar Health. “We’ve heard directly from the community that they want accessible, trusted, and affordable care closer to home. That’s exactly what we’re bringing.”
Appointments for primary medical care for children and adults are now being accepted by calling (262) 771-0035. Behavioral health counseling services will be available at this location later this summer.
Although the clinic will be accepting appointments for people of all ages, they have added additional resources to ensure pediatric providers are available just in time for back-to-school health visits, including required physicals, immunizations, and evaluation for sports and wellness screenings. Pillar Health is committed to ensuring students are ready for the upcoming school year. These comprehensive checkups include:
- Required school physicals, including sports evaluations if needed
- State-required immunizations
- Developmental screenings
- Updated health history and sports physical forms
- Preventive care and wellness guidance
The pediatric providers at Pillar Health can also provide the documentation required by schools, including regular health history updates for chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and severe allergies, as well as a history of chickenpox in place of the Varicella vaccine.
Clinic hours for medical services are:
- Monday: 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM
- Tuesday: 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM
- Wednesday: 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM
- Thursday: 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM
- Friday: 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Pillar Health Racine is located in the heart of the Lincoln-King neighborhood, within walking distance of the current and future Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center, scheduled to open in 2026. Once complete, Pillar Health’s services will transition to the new center, where dental services will also be added while continuing its mission of providing fully integrated care and wraparound services to support individuals and families navigating a complex healthcare environment.
The clinic’s placement at Julian Thomas Elementary School reflects a strong partnership with the City of Racine Public Health Department, United Way of Racine County, and Racine Unified School District. This alignment with the community school model ensures that students and families can access vital medical and behavioral health services without leaving their neighborhood.
