He says he has been to a couple of local clinics and they don’t accept Medicare. The growth is big and marble sized. His barber won’t cut his hair anymore because of the growth. Hoping it can be removed and cauterized. Need to find a clinic in the Mission District where he can find assistance. He has no $ and lives on SS.

Doesn't SF still have universal heathcare? It had it long before Obamacare. Any SF resident gets affordable healthcare depending on their ability to pay. If that ability is $0 then it's free healthcare.

Even the best hospitals take Medicare.
If he qualifies and requires surgery, he could apply for Medi-Cal pending.
