In May, St.Vincent and Witham Health Services announced a major initiative to expand healthcare access in Clinton County with the development of a new ambulatory care center at 2485 E. Wabash Street in Frankfort, across from Walmart. The health systems announced Wednesday, St. Vincent Medical Group at Frankfort will begin seeing patients on Monday, December 10, and Witham Health Services of Frankfort will begin seeing patients on Monday, January 7.
The new facility will offer immediate care, primary care, imaging, rehabilitation and laboratory services, in addition to a variety of specialty care providers.
“As the healthcare industry moves toward more personalized care, patients expect providers to make their services more accessible and convenient for them,” said Aaron Shoemaker, Chief Medical Officer, St. Vincent Medical Group. “In collaboration with Witham Health Services, Clinton County residents in need of non-emergency care will have a new option.”
This new development reinforces St.Vincent and Witham Health Services’ continued commitment to Clinton County and surrounding residents.
“It brings quality healthcare closer to home so that we can better serve their needs,” said Raymond Ingham, President/CEO of Witham Health Services. “We are very excited to bring these services to the residents of Frankfort and Clinton County and continue to look for ways we can improve access and quality care to those we serve.”
The new center will be open Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
A family community day and open house will be held from 2 to 4 p.m., Sunday, January 13. Attendees will be able to meet providers, tour the new facility and enjoy refreshments and a giveaway.
