New UK HealthCare clinic opens, offering quality family health care in Hamburg
LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 5, 2024) — Families in or near the Hamburg area of Lexington have a new, convenient location to receive quality primary care from UK HealthCare providers.
UK HealthCare – Hamburg recently opened at 2700 Old Rosebud Road, Suite 110 in Lexington. Offering services ranging from physicals to chronic disease and medication management, the clinic is the perfect place for all ages to receive dedicated health care.
“In Family and Community Medicine, we see the entire family, newborns and up,” said Ginny Gottschalk, M.D., the chair of the UK College of Medicine Department of Family and Community Medicine. “We provide acute care for illnesses and injuries, chronic care management for diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure, and preventive care like cancer screenings, pap tests and well-child visits. We are a one-stop shop for all of your family’s health care needs.”
Appointments can be made at 859-257-6200. The clinic is open Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. More details, including a full list of offered services, can be found on the clinic’s website.
The UK HealthCare – Hamburg clinic opened in May to make UK Family and Community Medicine providers available to more of the central Kentucky community.
“This clinic was opened to serve the community in the Hamburg area of Lexington — everyone in the community, but especially our UK employees who live in that part of town,” Gottschalk said.
Providers plan their care to best fit the needs of the patient, considering their family history and preferences when planning procedures and treatment options.
UK HealthCare is widening its primary care reach across central Kentucky, opening three new primary care clinics in 2024 while strengthening existing primary care locations.
“We are excited to be expanding our primary care services to care for more of central Kentucky,” Gottschalk said.
The new clinic isn’t the only UK HealthCare development in the Hamburg area, which has some of the largest concentrations of UK employees in the county. A new outpatient medical facility will take shape in the future Hamburg East development.
