Radically human healthcare, imagined for our community
At The Iris Center, we imagined what healthcare could look like if we stripped away everything that hurt: insurance gatekeeping, rushed visits, hidden fees. And kept everything that mattered: Human connection. Time to listen. Care without conditions.
We built this place because we believe healthcare should feel safe, clear, and deeply personal.
Our Vision
We are here to prove that healthcare can work differently.
Through a simple, community-funded model, we make affirming, high-quality care accessible to anyone who walks through our doors without hidden costs, without corporate control, and without making identity or income a barrier.
We envision a world where every patient knows they matter.
Our Mission
The Iris Center provides compassionate, inclusive, and patient-centered healthcare that is designed to be affordable, accessible, and affirming.
We ensure every individual receives high-quality, trauma-informed care without barriers, bias, or corporate interference, creating a healthcare experience where patients feel truly seen, heard, and valued.
How we make it happen
We rely on a model built by and for our community.
Through the Community Beneficiary program, people who believe in this work support the center with donations. Those contributions allow us to maintain transparent pricing, longer visits, and flexibility for patients who face financial barriers.
Values we’re built on
Radical Inclusivity
Healthcare should be a safe space for every identity, every body, every story.
Transparency and Affordability
No hidden fees. No fine print. Just clear, fair care.
Patient-Centered, Corporate-Free Care
Your needs, not insurance claims, guide everything we do.
Compassion in Action
Healing happens when patients are seen, heard, and honored as whole people.
Empowerment Through Care
We believe knowledge is power, and dignity is a right.
This is just the beginning. Whether you’re seeking care, dreaming of change, or ready to support something better, there’s a place for you here.
