 Georgia, Vt.—The Northwestern Walk-In Clinic will officially open its doors for business on Monday, May 11th. Conveniently located just off I-89 at exit 18 on Route 7, the Northwestern Walk-In Clinic will provide increased access to health care services in Franklin County.
A public Open House will be held on Saturday, May 9th from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. to celebrate the opening of the clinic. The community is invited to stop by for tours of the new facility and the adjacent offices of Dr. Joseph Nasca, pediatrician, and Dr. Charles Miranda, optometrist.
WOKO will be broadcasting live from the open house event, refreshments will be available, and flowers will be handed out to the first 150 moms who stop by in honor of Mother’s Day.
The Northwestern Walk-In Clinic is a new option for treating minor (non-emergent) health care needs, with no appointments necessary. The clinic will treat a wide range of conditions including: flu & colds, sore throats, fevers, sprains & strains, minor burns, x-rays and minor injuries, lacerations/stitches, immunizations, physicals for sports, camps & DOT, urinary tract infections, and more.
Convenience is key at the Northwestern Walk-In Clinic, featuring hours in the morning before work, during the day, after school, and into the evening. The Clinic will also be open on Saturdays. The Clinic will be open Monday - Friday, 7 am - 7 pm, or Saturday from 8 am - 2 pm.
Northwestern Walk-In Clinic provides an affordable alternative to the Emergency Department. An Emergency Department is designed for emergent needs and lifesaving care — making it an expensive choice for less urgent situations. Our Walk-In Clinic provides a more affordable alternative for non-emergent medical conditions.
NMC x-ray & mammography services will also be available within the Northwestern Walk-In Clinic. Digital mammography and x-ray technologies are more convenient than ever. Plus our MammoPad and digital mammography screening process offer the latest in comfort and technology. No appointments are necessary. However, an order form from a provider is required.
NMC will also offer Performance Rehab services within the new space. Highly trained therapists with research based approaches and wonderful new equipment will help athletes get back in action and others to achieve their maximum performance.
