NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – People living in North Little Rock and the surrounding areas have another place to go for medical care.
A ribbon cutting ceremony was held Wednesday to celebrate the opening of the Baptist Health Family Clinic – Rose City. The clinic provides services ranging from illness treatments, women’s health and mental health.
North Little Rock and Baptist Health break ground on new health clinic in Rose City This is the first full-service clinic in the eastern part of North Little Rock since their last medical office burned back in 2013 and is a partnership between Baptist Health and the city of North Little Rock.
“So before this clinic was here, the other option was across the highway, and there many individuals of the community that had transportation issues. So it would be a little bit difficult for them to get ta clinic,” Dr. Jessica Udeogu explained. “So having this here its walkable for many in the area and it’s easy access to care.”
