A new urgent care facility, Innovative Urgent Care, is coming to 9809 Main St. in the space that was home to Pet Valu in the Damascus Center until late 2020. A $500K permit has been issued for the interior work to begin.
In addition to in-person visits, Innovative Urgent Care will have telemedicine services available. “At Innovative Urgent Care, we are thrilled to announce that we have telemedicine services for your convenience! In today’s fast-paced world, accessing healthcare should be as easy as clicking a button, and that’s exactly what we’re offering. Our telemedicine platform allows you to connect with our experienced healthcare providers from the comfort of your home, office, or wherever you may be.”
Telemedicine leverages technology to provide medical care from a distance. Using video calls, secure messaging, and other digital tools, patients can receive consultations, prescriptions, diagnoses, and even treatment plans without the need to visit a physical clinic. “This approach to healthcare is not just a response to the current times but a step towards more accessible, convenient, and efficient medical care.”
The Innovative Care website states that an early October opening is expected for the facility.
