Our Story
The Foundation of Hope
2016
In June 2026, a team of volunteers and partners formed to bring our mission of hope and healing to life. The Baptist Immigration Center generously offered the use of their building.
Opening Our Doors
2017-18
In July 2017, CommonGood Medical, formerly the Hope Clinic of McKinney, began operations one day a week, providing medical services regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. In 2018, clinic operations expanded to two days a week.
A Place to Call Home
2019
In September 2019, the clinic relocated to our dedicated clinic space in McKinney. Our current home allowed for increased operating hours to serve more patients.
The Patient Assistance Program
2023
The Patient Assistance Program was established to assist established patients with medical needs outside our walls. By 2025, over $108,000 was spent for patients to receive services from our CommonGood Network partners.
Expanding Care
2024
The CommonGood Network continued to serve our patients with much-needed outside specialty care and surgeries by expanding to 40 providers, 2 pharmacies, and 2 dentists.
Second Location Opens
2025
The Farmersville clinic opened, serving patients one day a week, thanks to the use of space at First United Methodist Church in Farmersville.
CommonGood Thrift Is Born
2025
CommonGood Thrift launched, and our donation center opened. Our thrift store will help provide sustainability for our organization and create jobs for the community. It will also care for the environment by reducing waste and giving gently used goods a second life.
Expansion Continues
2026
In mid-2025, we purchased the location for our new clinic home to open in 2026. We are in the process of moving into our new space, and are very excited for the new journey.

Healthcare Shouldn’t Depend on What You Earn
Thousands of hardworking adults in Collin County fall into a gap — earning too much to qualify for assistance, but too little to afford insurance. At CommonGood Medical, we exist to close that gap with compassionate, accessible care.
Who We Serve
She Is More Than Her Circumstances.
She is a mother. A provider. A neighbor.
She works hard, often juggling multiple jobs and caring for her family. Yet when it comes to healthcare, she falls into a space many people never see: earning too much for assistance but not enough for insurance.
When illness comes, she keeps working. Keeps caring for others. And often, she waits. Not because she doesn’t care — because access feels out of reach. At CommonGood Medical, we begin by seeing her.
The Growing Need
A Gap in Access
Thousands of hardworking adults navigate life without a consistent place to receive care.
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
110,000+
Collin County residents live without health insurance.
Barriers Beyond Cost
Access to care isn’t only about affordability. Residents consistently name the same challenges:
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Limited access to primary care
Long wait times
Transportation challenges
Difficulty navigating the system
Gaps in mental health support
The Barriers Stack Up
These barriers compound over time, making healthcare increasingly difficult to reach.
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
These barriers don’t stand alone. They stack. And over time, they make care harder to reach.
The Medicaid Gap
Understanding the Medicaid Gap
Many neighbors fall into a difficult reality: Too much income to qualify for Medicaid. Too little income to afford private insurance.
In Texas, Medicaid eligibility remains limited, leaving many hardworking adults without a clear path to care.
What Happens Next? Without insurance:
Care becomes reactive instead of preventive
Small concerns become serious conditions
Costs increase dramatically over time
Delayed Care Costs
When Care Becomes Emergency Care
For many uninsured adults, emergency rooms become the only option — not for emergencies, but for everyday healthcare. When care is delayed, problems don’t disappear. They become more complicated, costly, and difficult to treat.
AVERAGE COSTS:
1 Emergency Room Visit - $2,700
CommonGood Medical Cost:
1 Patient’s care for a full year ~$1,300
The Reality Today
Need Is Growing Faster Than Access
At the current pace, it would take 35 YEARS to reach every uninsured neighbor in Collin County just once.
That isn’t a distant challenge. It’s happening now.
Care Exists. But Not for Everyone.
Even through barriers, our neighbors continue showing up — working, caring for family, and doing the best they can with what they have.
The challenge isn’t a lack of effort. It’s a gap in the system.
CommonGood Medical exists to help close that gap.
