About Us

We utilize state-of-the-art treatments to help get people back on their feet & moving.
Our Mission
To Improve Musculoskeletal Healthcare Access & Quality Of Life In Underserved CommunitiesWe initiate outreach & education to at-risk communities by providing vital medical services focused on the musculoskeletal health needs of populations that have historically been largely overlooked. Regardless of ability to pay, our ultimate goal is to help Chicago’s neediest residents have access to consistent, comprehensive, and compassionate healthcare.
Overcoming The Status Quo
Health Care Disparities Are A Critical Challenge To The American Health Care SystemStudies show that racial and ethnic minorities receive lower-quality health care than non-minorities, even when insurance status, income, age and severity of conditions are comparable. The causes of these disparities are many - poverty, unequal access to health care, poor environmental conditions, educational inequalities, individual behaviors, and language barriers are all-important contributors. ChiMSI works within the most underserved communities to help eliminate these disparities.
Community Service & Outreach
