Florham Park, NJ - Mayor Scott Eveland Officiated the Grand Opening of a New Doctors Express Urgent Care Center
Florham Park, NJ, June 15, 2012 --(PR.com)-- On June 13th, the Mayor of Florham Park, Scott Eveland, presided over the Grand Opening of a new urgent care facility in Florham Park. Doctors Express is the fastest growing urgent care network in the United States and the Florham Park location will the be 52nd nationwide and the third in New Jersey. The latest Doctors Express Center is located at 128 Columbia Turnpike.
To continue the celebration, residents of Florham Park and nearby towns are invited to an open house on Saturday, June 16th from 11AM – 2PM. Light refreshments will be served. Come by to check out the center, meet the doctors, and welcome the new business to the Township.
Doctors Express provides a real solution for people who are looking for easy access to convenient, affordable, non-life threatening healthcare services. By offering walk-in urgent medical care, from board-certified physicians, trained in urgent and emergency care, patients can get the immediate attention they seek, every day of the year.
Recent studies show that nearly one-third of all emergency room visits are to treat non-life threatening conditions, that could be handled at an urgent care facility. Factor in the higher cost associated with many ER visits, longer wait times and overcrowding1, it isn’t surprising that consumers are turning to urgent care as an alternative. A National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey shows that the difference in cost between an ER visit and one to Urgent Care, for the same diagnosis, was significant at $583 versus $228 respectively2.
