Patients receive free dental care at a clinic sponsored by Remote Area Medical (RAM), a Tennessee-based nonprofit, in Los Angeles on April 28, 2010. RAM is offering free medical, vision and dental services to those without health insurance for about 1,200 people per day in the week-long Los Angeles event.

Following a heavily-attended event last August, a massive mobile free clinic returned to Los Angeles on Tuesday for a weeklong operation at the Los Angeles Sports Arena. Organized by Tennessee-based nonprofit Remote Area Medical, volunteer doctors, dentists, and health professionals are expected to treat 1,200 patients each day. Larry Mantle checks up with Alex Cohen on the attendance and care offered at the clinic.
