Thank you for all that you do!

We're humbled and grateful to share that Johnson City Eye Clinic has been named Project Access Clinic of the Year at this year's Provider Appreciation Gala — "Creating a Constellation of Care."

This recognition means the world to our team, not because of the award itself, but because of what it represents: the opportunity to serve our neighbors right here in the community where we live, work, and raise our families. Providing care to those who need it most has never felt like extra work — it's just part of who we are.

Thank you to for the incredible work you do connecting patients with the care they deserve, and for including us in that mission. We're proud to be a small part of something much bigger.

Here's to every provider, volunteer, and partner creating this constellation of care across our region. We celebrate all of you. ✨

Happy National Doctors day to all of our Project Access providers! We love you more than you know.

On Saturday we celebrated several of our providers at our Annual Provider Appreciation Gala. Project Access currently is trying to fund 25 patient journeys by June 30th. At the gala we were able to make a significant leap towards that goal. 20 patient journeys are now funded! We are so grateful.

Thank you to the Project Access Gala Team for all of their hard work, Amy Lynn for being our emcee, Mike Elam for the entertainment, and our sponsors Food City and Ballad!

Today it's International Day of Happiness which highlights the importance of happiness and well-being worldwide. One of our Care Coordinators, Taylor, is one of the happiest people any of us have ever met. Here is what she has to say about happiness:

Surround yourself with a good community and like-minded people. Live and enjoy every moment. Be present where you are instead of worrying about where you need to be. Happiness comes from how you live, it is not dependent on other people and their actions. 💛
