Loudoun Community Health Center
Hosts Annual Free School Physicals Day
for Needy Kids
Kindergartners from low-income families will have an opportunity to receive their school physical exams free
this summer, a requirement for school enrollment, as the Loudoun Community Health Center hosts its 4th annual Free School Physicals Day.
On Saturday, August 6, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m., physicals will be performed by providers at the Loudoun Community
Health Center, 224 Cornwall St NW, in Leesburg. The event is intended only for children from low-income families that would not otherwise be able to afford school physicals. Appointments are not necessary. Physicals will be provided throughout the day. Afternoon visitors should experience less of a wait time than those who arrive first thing in the morning.

“Last year, we performed physicals on more than 180 children,” said Dr. Lauren Cianciaruso, Chief Medical Officer
at the Loudoun Community Health Center. “We’re proud to be providing such a great service for needy families in Loudoun. “
In addition to health care providers from the Loudoun Community Health Center, more than 80 volunteers from
the Loudoun County Department of Health, the Loudoun County Public School nurses, Loudoun Cares, the Loudoun Free Clinic, Inova and many other groups will help on that day. The Junior League of Northern Virginia will provide free backpacks filled with new school supplies for each child. For more information, call the Loudoun Community Health Center at 703-443-2000.
