St. Elizabeth Physicians is excited to announce the grand opening of a new facility in Richwood on Tuesday, September 30, at 10 a.m. This state-of-the-art center is a big step for healthcare in Boone County.
Dr. Meghan Markovich, a primary care physician with St. Elizabeth Physicians, shared, “This new facility shows our commitment to the health of Boone County and nearby areas. We’re making healthcare more accessible, which helps keep families healthy. Some of our key services will include primary care, urgent care, women’s health, and lab services.”
This modern 33,000 sq. ft. building, located at 605 Man O War Boulevard, represents a substantial $15 million investment in community health. Situated conveniently near the I-71/75 corridor, it aims to meet the needs of a growing population.
What can you expect at the new facility? Here’s a quick list of services they will provide:
- Primary Care
- Women’s Health
- Urgent Care
- Podiatry
- Lab Services
Urgent Care will be especially beneficial, as they can accommodate up to 80 patients daily and offer weekend hours for those who need care outside regular hours. This aligns with a national trend where urgent care facilities are becoming increasingly popular, with a reported 20% growth in the sector from 2019 to 2021.
During the opening event, speeches will be given by Dr. Heidi Murley, the president & CEO of St. Elizabeth Physicians, and Boone County Judge Executive Gary Moore. Attendees can enjoy facility tours and refreshments after the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The Richwood location is a timely response to the area’s rapid growth and rising demands for healthcare services. By bringing multiple healthcare options under one roof, St. Elizabeth is dedicated to ensuring the community has easy access to the care they need.
