You can expect:

Most visits last 30–60 minutes.

Language and Interpreter Services

At Lynn Community Health Center, new patients can get care in their own language. We offer:

You will never pay for an interpreter at LCHC.
Please tell us if you need an interpreter when you schedule your visit.

If your child attends a Lynn Public School, care may be available right at school.
