Little Lake Health Center (LLHC), located at 45 Hazel Street, provides patient care in an integrated setting, with doctors, dentists and psychotherapists working together to provide a full spectrum of care to individuals and families.

LLHC is pleased to let the community know that it welcomes Medi-Cal and offers sliding-scale payments to those in need of dental care.
