When you visit the Valleywise Community Health Center – McDowell, you can feel confident that you’ll receive complete care, regardless of your ability to pay.
We are grateful for the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, which has supported us with the funding we need to be able to serve as the largest provider of HIV/AIDS-related medical care for adults across Maricopa County.
We offer a wide range of treatments including:
Outpatient treatment
Support services and care coordination
Early, quick intervention and prevention services
If you’ve just been newly diagnosed with HIV/AIDS, it’s extremely important to begin treatment as soon as possible. We’re here to make sure you always have everything you need. Taking your HIV medications as prescribed can result in an undetectable level of HIV in your blood. If you’re undetectable, you cannot transmit HIV to others – this is called “prevention through treatment.
Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Once daily medication that can be used in combination with other prevention methods (such as condoms) to substantially reduce the risk of HIV infection.
Free HIV testing kits are available through Valleywise Health.
