LIVE OAK WALK-IN CARE TO HOST GRAND OPENING EVENT ON JULY 25
SAN MARCOS, TX – San Marcos has a new option for fast, affordable walk-in medical care. Live Oak Walk-In Care, located on the I-35 east access road near Wonder World Drive, will host an open in conjunction with a San Marcos Chamber ribbon cutting on July 25 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The event will include grab-n-go refreshments, door prizes and tours of the facility.
Live Oak Walk-In Care began operations in late spring and offers extended evening and weekend hours. The clinic’s team of board-certified physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners sees patients from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday and Sunday.
“The opening of the Walk-In Care clinic provides immediate, same-day care to patients when their doctors’ offices are closed,” said Live Oak Health Partners (LOHP) Physician Practice Administrator Lenore DePagter, DO. “We are pleased to bring this option to San Marcos and surrounding communities.”
Live Oak Walk-In Care treats patients of all ages. Most insurance is accepted, and the staff speaks Spanish fluently. Services offered include:
· Colds/Flu/Respiratory
· Muscle/Joint Injuries and Sprains
· Minor fractures
· Skin Irritations and Cuts
· School and Sports Physicals
· On site X-ray and Lab
Unlike an urgent care facility, walk-in care prices and co-pays are consistent with a doctor’s office visit instead of hospital emergency room co-pays and fees.
Live Oak Walk-In Care is also committed to helping local businesses hire and maintain a healthy workforce. The clinic offers pre-employment physicals, drug screenings, occupational medicine and treatment of work-related injuries as well as muscle and joint injuries and sprains.
