The health of our community is our top priority, and we strive to make sure our patients receive the highest quality care at each of our locations.
We are temporarily closing the Walk-in Clinic at Forest City Family Care effective Monday, March 7, 2022. This closure will allow us to make some necessary improvements in order to provide you with the most efficient and thorough care.
 
While the clinic is unavailable, we all know that EMERGENCIES DON’T WAIT!
Our team of highly skilled clinical providers remains available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (24/7) at Rutherford Regional Health System Emergency Room at 288 S. Ridgecrest Street. We are continuing to follow all necessary COVID precautions to ensure the safety of our patients and their visitors. From the routine to the unforeseen, you can count on us!
 
We will update you when we are able to welcome you back to the Walk-In Clinic.
