After seeing a need for an urgent care clinic for the residents of Tuscaloosa area - Dr. Bruce Irwin broke ground on a new location in this area. The ground breaking was held on Wednesday, May 20^th at 10:30. We had a great turn out for this event - several people attended from our corporate office, the Mayor of Tuscaloosa, and several chamber ambassadors.

 

The clinic will be 5,000 square feet and is designed, equipped, and staffed to provide comprehensive urgent care, family care, minor emergency treatment, and occupational medicine. Also, it has a high tech, high touch, digital x-ray, onsite lab, and EMR (Electronic Medical Records). The clinic will be open seven days a week from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M
