Saint Paul / Minnesota / United States
The HealthPartners Center for International Health was established in 1980 in response to the influx of Southeast Asians to Minnesota after the end of the Vietnam War. Initially called The Hmong Clinic, or the Southeast Asian Clinic, the clinic now sees many more Russian, African and Burmese patients as immigration trends change Minnesotas demographics. Since 1980, the program has expanded to include patients from more than 30 countries, with a staff of providers combining more than 100 years of experience in International Health with extensive experience practicing both internationally and in the United States. Our International Mental Health program was established in 1984 offering psychiatry, psychology, and group therapy. We also employ a full time social worker and offer onsite interpreters for over 10 languages or language line interpreters via phone for virtually any language. Our bilingual staff is dedicated to providing culturally competent health care to all patients.
