Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care Opens First Center in Mint Hill, North Carolina

Mint Hill, N.C., Jan. 27, 2020 – Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care has opened a new urgent care center in Mint Hill, North Carolina, at 11300 Cresthill Drive, right off Matthews-Mint Hill Rd., next to Novant Health Mint Hill Family Medicine and across from the Mint Hill Town Hall. The new urgent care center will provide the community with effortless access to convenient, high quality healthcare services, including on-site lab and X-ray capabilities.

“The Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care experience begins before even setting foot in our centers,” said Kirsten P. Jones, North Carolina market president of GoHealth Urgent Care. “We’re excited that the Mint Hill community can experience the convenience of our digital tools, including online and mobile check-in, real-time wait clocks and online registration, that are designed to enhance the remarkable care that patients have come to expect from Novant Health.”

The new, state-of-the-art urgent care center puts patients first with an open floor plan that allows patients to easily interact with the clinical staff and larger treatment and exam rooms to accommodate patients' families and friends. Patients will also benefit from integrated electronic medical records and the ability to choose when they want to be seen at /nc. They can also further minimize their wait times by registering online, which will confirm their insurance eligibility and any co-pay amounts before they arrive.

The Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care network currently has 10 centers in Charlotte and 17 overall in North Carolina, with more centers opening this year.

“Novant Health continues to create a coordinated health system to help ensure that our patients get the right care, at the right time, and at the right cost,“ said Joy Greear, president and chief operating officer of Novant Health Mint Hill Medical Center. “Having access to a comprehensive urgent care center allows the Mint Hill community to be treated for non-life threatening medical issues when a primary care provider is not available as an alternative to a more costly emergency department visit.”

All Novant Health-GoHealth Urgent Care centers offer extended hours and are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, including holidays. For more information, please visit: /nc.
