Championing equitable access to high quality patient-focused care, social justices and economic equity!

Welcome to Whittier Street Health Center where we have a long tradition of caring for Boston’s neighborhoods. For more than 85 years, we have provided services that take care of the whole “you." Think of Whittier as a one-stop shop where you can come for your primary care, wellness programs, eye and dental care, and behavioral health services. Our Walk-in clinic is open and pediatric patients will always be seen -- even without an appointment.

We care for everyone, regardless of insurance coverage or ability to pay. If you do not have insurance we will help you enroll or re-enroll in the right plan. Because insurance plans can be complicated, our staff will work with you until your application is approved. Our medical team and staff are ranked among the finest in delivering comprehensive health care based on your needs and those of your community. If you have any concerns about patient care and safety at Whittier Street Health Center, please contact WSHC compliance line at 617-989-3199. If your concerns cannot be resolved at this level, then you are encouraged to contact the JCAHO (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare) or MDPH (Massachusetts Department of Public Health) at their 24-hour complaint line [(800)462-5540 or (617)753-8150].
