Our Mission

The mission of GSCC's Nurse Practitioner Residency Program is to enhance the training of new Family Nurse Practitioners, thereby boosting their professional proficiency, self-assurance, and comprehension of the unique challenges within the community health center population. The GSCC, through delivering advanced didactic and clinical educational opportunities, furthers its purpose of broadening the availability of high-quality healthcare practitioners who serve in rural and urban underserved areas. In doing so, communities can retain outstanding primary healthcare professionals who are specially trained to serve the populations unique to community health centers and other healthcare settings.

The Good Shepherd’s Mission, Vision & Values

Providing Affordable Healthcare to South Central Oklahoma.

Since 1996, Good Shepherd Community Clinic, Inc.'s (GSCC) healthcare team of compassionate, professional staff and volunteers have consistently provided thousands of people in South Central Oklahoma with accessible, medical, dental and pharmaceutical services in addition to helping them connect to other necessary social resources such as food and behavioral healthcare with the hope of improving their overall quality of life by caring for the whole patient.

Each year, individuals from all over South Central Oklahoma who lack affordable healthcare access receive quality care for everything from the common cold to serious chronic diseases, abscessed teeth, and access to otherwise unaffordable medications through an integrated care team approach. 

Built upon the commitment and vision of a dedicated group of providers and volunteers, the GSCC has grown from the original Tuesday night volunteer clinic in a small rental house treating 85 patients in 1996 to a full-time, comprehensive Community Health Center caring for more than 9,500 medical and dental patients.

Today, our vision is to transform healthcare delivery by empowering each other, inspiring change, and building healthy people. The GSCC Team is committed to promoting patient wellness with an emphasis on prevention as well as education on important health factors like nutrition, disease self-management and physical activity.  Evidence of this commitment to "build healthy people" can be seen in the way we practice.  It's something you need to experience, so come for a visit!

The Good Shepherd Community Clinic, Inc. exists so that the working poor and others who lack healthcare access receive quality care and improved health outcomes.
