MedExpress Opens Urgent Care Center in Princeton

MedExpress Urgent Care, West Virginia's patient-centered urgent care provider, opened its newest center today in Princeton. MedExpress now operates nine centers in its home state and more than 40 centers nationwide.

Like every MedExpress center in West Virginia, the Princeton location, at 277 Greasy Ridge Road, will be open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week. MedExpress Urgent Care employs more than 300 people in West Virginia and last year treated more than 200,000 people in the state. In time for back-to-school, MedExpress has recently begun offering $20 sports and school physicals.

"We look forward to serving the people of Princeton," said MedExpress CEO Frank Alderman, MD, and a West Virginia native. "We're proud to call West Virginia our home state and, as with all of our centers, we are committed to the patient experience. We do that by delivering timely, affordable, high-quality urgent care and we are excited to continue bringing that to the people of West Virginia."

MedExpress Urgent Care is a full-service, walk-in health care clinic offering medical treatment to all ages for illness and injury. There is always a physician on duty, supported by a full medical team.

In addition to the new location, MedExpress operates centers in Beckley, Bridgeport, Charleston, Huntington, Morgantown, Parkersburg, South Charleston and Wheeling. Several additional centers are planned for 2010.
