Borinquen Medical Centers began in 1972 as a grass-roots community effort from a group of community organizers in the Puerto Rican community with a small grant from the Public Health Service to establish a health clinic in Wynwood.

Borinquen Medical Centers provide a comprehensive range of health and social services to our culturally diverse community in Miami-Dade County. Our quality services are accessible to all people throughout the area through a multi-discipline approach.

It is the policy of Borinquen Medical Centers to ensure that our patients obtain the best continuity of care after hours. Borinquen Medical Centers patients will have access to a provider after hours 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by calling 305-576-6611.
