The Ector County Hospital District Board in Odessa, Texas, approved a $10.9 million contract with Lubbock contractor Lee Lewis Construction to build The Center for Primary Care-JBS Parkway and The Center of Primary Care-West University, according to an article in the Odessa American.
The The Center of Primary Care-West University will be the first urgent care in the area, according to Medical Center Hospital CEO Bill Webster. "That’s been a need for many years," Webster said of the West Odessa clinic. "There’s virtually no primary care there."
Both clinics are scheduled to open late summer or early fall of 2014.
The new clinics come at a time Ector County continues to see an increase in population due to the oil boom. City of Odessa officials have put the estimated population of Odessa around 140,000 while O’Hearn said West Odessa has about 40,000 people, according to the article.
