Massac Memorial Medical Clinic
We are here to help.
|
At Massac Memorial Hospital, we recognize that every medical issue is an important one. That is why we have expended our primary care program with the addition of The Massac Memorial Medical Clinic.
The Massac Memorial Medical Clinic is designed with you and the needs of your loved ones in mind. We understand that while a child with a high fever, painful inner ear infection and sleepless parents may not warrant a trip to the emergency room, treating the patient is as important to us as treating a trauma patient in dire need.
Located on the Massac Memorial Hospital campus, The Massac Memorial Medical Clinic makes caring for yourself and your family convenient and comfortable. We are now accepting patients with or without an appointment and our caring staff is dedicated to providing you with the right care you need. And, because our laboratory and imaging center are also on-site, when and if the need arises, our staff will work with you to coordinate and schedule tests that may be necessary to help you get back on track. |

The Massac Memorial Medical Clinic is now accepting patients. When you or a loved one experiences a need for vital primary healthcare services, or are suffering from symptoms such as a sore throat, fever, coughs or body aches, we are here to help.
