DMC to open walk-in medical care in Davis in 2021

DAVIS, W.Va. – The area’s largest regional healthcare provider announced recently that it will open a walk-in medical care clinic inside the Davis Shop ‘n Save Express in Davis, W.Va.  The clinic is anticipated to open in May 2021.

The clinic will operate seven days a week, including weekday evenings, and no appointment is necessary. 

“We are eager to help broaden access to high quality convenient and affordable health care services in Tucker County,” said Davis Health System CEO Vance Jackson.  “This clinic model is centered on accessible evening and weekend care; something we understand is a much needed service in the area.”

Davis Health System physician assistants and nurse practitioners who specialize in family healthcare and the diagnosis and treatment of acute illness and injury will staff the clinic.

 Davis Health is partnering with Davis Shop ‘n Save Express owner Craig Phillips to repurpose space inside the supermarket.

“The location is already a destination point for people in Canaan Valley, Davis, Thomas, and neighboring communities so it will be ideally convenient for the local population as well as the tourist market,” said Jackson.
