What is your Mission?

Vista Community Clinic’s mission is Valuable Connected Care: Meeting the health and wellness needs of our community.

What do you offer to the community?

VCC offers a comprehensive array of health and wellness units to the North County San Diego, Riverside County, and Orange County communities. Services include adult and family medicine, women’s health, pediatrics, dental, behavioral health, cardiology, optometry, acupuncture, chiropractic care, senior care, cancer screenings, and many more. VCC also offers various community health education programs, which are free and open to all community residents. Beyond providing care to anyone who walks through its doors, VCC promotes accessibility to quality health and dental services through its Mobile Medical Unit.

What was your organization/company’s biggest accomplishment in the past six months – one year?

VCC’s biggest accomplishment in the past year is the opening of our senior-focused facility in Vista, Ca. VCC: Durian Senior Adult Care is a response to the increased senior population in our community. This new location aims to make our senior patients feel safe in a welcoming and caring environment.

What event/program or campaign do you have coming up that you would like to share with our readers?

VCC is excited to be hosting its Inaugural Pickleball Tournament with all funds raised going directly to expanding health and wellness services in the community. This fundraiser will be at the Bobby Riggs Racket and Paddle in Encinitas on Saturday, May 20 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Open to all ages and skill levels. Spectators are also welcome!

Have you made a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion within your organization/company and if so, how are you demonstrating it?

VCC’s core values are the foundation of our organizational culture. Our goal is to be inclusive and treat everyone who walks through our clinic doors with respect. We honor the diverse backgrounds that make up our community and employees as we work together towards health equity.
