MedExpress Urgent Care, a neighborhood health care provider, will open a new neighborhood medical center in Clewiston on Wednesday, Dec. 12, at 960 W. Sugarland Hwy.
The Clewiston center will mark the opening by offering free flu shots to patients ages four and up from Dec. 12-18.
“We are thrilled to open our doors to the Clewiston community,” said Marcus DeMaiolo, Florida area manager, MedExpress.
“Everything about our model of care and our center is focused on the patient. With most patients in and out in under an hour, people can walk in, see our friendly medical team and receive quality and timely professional medical care.”
The Clewiston center will care for people of all ages, providing urgent care, employer health services and basic wellness and prevention services. Walk-in treatment is available for everyday illness and injury – including treatment for fall and winter ailments such as colds, flu and upper respiratory infections – as well as more advanced services including X-rays, IVs, labs, minor surgery, stitches and treatment for broken bones, sprains and strains. Local employers can use MedExpress for employer health services that include workers’ compensation, injury care, pre- and ongoing employment screenings, physicals and regulatory exams. Basic wellness and prevention services include sports physicals, routine physicals and immunizations to help Clewiston residents maintain good health.
The Clewiston center will have multiple exam rooms, a procedure room and an X-ray suite. The center will be open every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., with no appointment necessary. MedExpress accepts all major insurance plans and offers affordable pricing for people without insurance. The center will be staffed by a full medical team that includes medical providers, radiologic technologists, nurses and customer service representatives. As a community health care partner, MedExpress believes strongly in the importance of working with fellow community health care providers to ensure the best possible outcomes for patients. When necessary, MedExpress can help refer patients within the broader health care system, including referrals to specialists, primary care physicians and hospitals.
