Oregon facility offers storefront healthcare

Corvallis' new medical facility is a storefront clinic wedged between a coffeehouse and a Mexican restaurant


The newest medical facility in Corvallis, Ore., is wedged between a coffeehouse and a Mexican restaurant.

The Corvallis Clinic's CareNow facility is billed as a “convenience care clinic,” and it’s the first facility of its kind between Salem and Eugene, according to an article on the Corvallis Gazette Times website.

The clinic will be open seven days a week, including evenings, with 15-minute appointment windows. An interactive calendar allows patients to schedule their visits online at the clinic’s website. CareNow will be able to treat mild illnesses and minor injuries, do checkups and physicals and provide immunizations.

According to the article, it will also be able to do some quick-turnaround lab tests and fill some patient prescriptions. Patients will check themselves in using touch-screen tablet computers linked to the Corvallis Clinic’s electronic medical records system.
