Lakeland, FL – The grand opening of Watson Clinic’s newest location – Watson Clinic Urgent Care South – will take place on Tuesday, January 7 from 3 – 5 pm. This special event will feature guided tours through the new facility, informative presentations from Watson Clinic representatives, and delicious hors d’oeuvres.

Located at 1033 N. Parkway Frontage Rd. in South Lakeland and constructed as an extension of the beloved Watson Clinic South location, Urgent Care South will feature a staff of board-certified physicians and highly professional care team members who treat a wide range of minor illnesses and injuries on a walk-in basis without the need for an appointment. The site will also feature the convenience of after-hours and weekend availability, online appointment availability through Watson Clinic’s MyChart patient portal system, and onsite access to x-ray, CT, ultrasound, EKG and laboratory capabilities.

“Watson Clinic’s Urgent Care department provides an opportunity for residents to receive the care they need when they need it the most, and without the high costs associated with traditional emergency room settings,” says Dr. Jarett A. Gregory, the supervising physician at Watson Clinic Urgent Care South. “These are the characteristics that have made Watson Clinic the urgent care experts in our community. Residents in south Lakeland and surrounding communities can expect the same exceptional caliber of care that they’ve received from our Urgent Care Main location over the years. Only now, these services will be closer to home than ever before.”
