Eye had a Great Time in Cleveland

OBBME visited Cleveland for a Medworks event focusing on eye care services to under or not insured patients. Over 1000 individuals gathered, 300 of those needed to be turned away due to resource limits (they did this at 9:30 am). The demand was amazing. The mobile express team spoke to hundreds of people.

Medworks continues to serve Ohioans with the least resources and are experts at rallying support from the medical field to accomplish these goals and we are glad to join forces with them to make a difference.




Here is the van at Quicken Loans Arena. Much of our time was spent in line however, talking to the 700 people waiting to be seen by an optometrist.



Pictured above is Erin with Ralph P. Ralph was seen at the last Medworks event and successfully applied for Medicaid with us. He has beginning stages of Alzheimer’s and is now attending a support group for his condition using his Medicaid benefits to do so. He came back to get an eye exam this time.



Question:




Who has two thumbs, has been on the floor of Quicken Loans Arena and has never won an NBA championship?



Alternate answer: LeBron James
