Wellsville, NY -- On April 1, 2024, the Jones Memorial
Urgent Care will begin expanded hours, opening its clinic seven days a week,
from 11am – 7pm. Two new providers have joined the JMH Urgent Care team. Kerime
Perese, NP and Jessica Lippa, FNP will join the team and provide almost
exclusive patient care to the Urgent Care center.
Stated Brenda Szabo, VP of Specialty Services, “We are proud
to be able to expand this service to our community and we’re thrilled to have
such talented providers joining our team.” She went on to emphasize how
important it is to keep rural healthcare local. “We recognize the need to keep
as many services local as possible. Our patients don’t want to drive over an
hour for routine issues and expanding our urgent care capabilities helps to
expand access and keep healthcare local.”
The center will also now provide DOT physicals and
pre-employment screenings by appointment only. Please call 585-596-2042 for
more information.
The Jones Memorial Urgent Care clinic is located across from
the lab inside the hospital. Urgent care is for non-emergency related issues
only, including coughs, abdominal pain, cuts, earaches, falls, sprains,
infections, minor burns, rashes, sore throat and upper respiratory infections.
For emergencies, please call 9-1-1 or visit the Jones Memorial Emergency
Department. For more information or to use the “On my way” feature, please
