Recognizing the need for affordable and free healthcare in Collier County, husband and wife team Lawrence J. Egger, PA-C and Geneve Mongene-Egger, RN/BSN, decided to take action.
In 2015, they launched PANIRA Healthcare Clinic as a 501(c)3 not-for-profit, walk-in and primary care clinic dedicated to keeping medical services affordable and convenient for the uninsured, low-income and no income individuals and families.
With the assistance of a Collier Cares Grant, PANIRA is able to offer affordable PCR rapid COVID-19 testing daily with results in 15 to 30 minutes, as well as free antibody testing with results in two to three days.
