Our team-based approach ensures coordinated treatment through integrated specialists, on-site labs, and radiology services.

Staff is always kind and helpful, and I always receive great care. I couldn't afford it without the assistance I get from them. Truly grateful!

Its almost impossible to get an appointment here. Nobody picks up the phones and when you leave a message to get a call back, nobody calls back. When you fortunate to get get an appointment the waiting time is 2 hours and the actual visit is like 5 minites. Seems like most staff in this clinic dont care about their patients. I have multiple health issues that needed to be addressed but nobody has gotten back to me so I had to go to the er multiple times. I feel like most of the staff do this because they know that the majority of their clients are non English speakers or people from low income areas.

Been a client here because I have to and have nothing but issues and troubles. Most messed up thing is they have covid tests where the lines are around the block, I waited for 2 hours, and people who weren't clients cut to the front, so if you're a client here do not get your covid test here. Youll be here for hours while they let others who just showed up be in and out in 10 minutes. This place is an absolute joke. Can't wait till I don't have to be a client here. Never experienced such an unprofessional medical clinic in my life

This place is as incompetent as they come. Stay far away unless you want the worst medical care possible. Idk where they find these doctors but look elsewhere.

This is just a quick note about the Novato campus of Marin Community Clinics. On Friday, I had an appointment to see the dermatologist, Dr. Eric Schten. From the time of my arrival, I found the experience to be phenomenal. All Covid-19 protocols were observed and I was called in to an examining room just after my appointment time by Jamie. We moved through all the onboarding (it was my first visit) with ease along with the help of Isaiah, and Dr. Schten came right along for a full examination.
He was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable about his field. He targeted questionable areas with ease and treated them immediately. This facility amazed me with how well appointed it was. Staff were friendly and outgoing. Certainly one of the best medical experiences of my life, and that is saying quite a bit. One downside is parking is rather precious at this location. I parked right on Redwood Blvd. but arrived early in case it would be a hike!

They have email portal, yet NEVER respond. You call and takes forever to get a call back. They cannot comprehend what facility to send lab paperwork to so when you show up for tests, the order is NOT there.
