In order to better serve the community, Doctors Express Urgent Care will open its second Danbury urgent care center on the west side of town on May 1st. The Grand Opening will be held on April 30th, from 5pm-8pm with the ribbon cutting at 6pm by Mayor Boughton and Danbury Chamber of Commerce at 100 Mill Plain Rd. Soon, residents of Danbury, Ridgefield, New Fairfield, Redding, Brookfield, Brewster, New York and many other towns will have easy access to a state-of-the art, walk-in urgent care center. The first Doctors Express in CT, that is now open, is located at 2 Main Street in Danbury.
“As Connecticut’s largest locally owned urgent care center group, Doctors Express is independent and not part of a larger health network. We are not primary care but we have a broad referral network and strong relationships with the best primary care physicians, pediatricians and specialists in the area,“ said Tom Kelly, co-owner of Doctors Express Urgent Care. “Our only concern is for our patients. We strive to meet our goal of providing the highest quality, affordable care in under an hour.”
Doors will open with a staff of physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, x-ray technicians, and medical assistants, ready and available to treat everything from viruses and infections, cuts and fractures to ear, eye, and skin issues. The new walk-in facility will have its own on-site laboratory, pharmacy and x-ray equipment enabling doctors to diagnose and treat illnesses and injuries as well as dispense medication to our patients.
Along with urgent care issues, Doctors Express Danbury also provides physicals and vaccinations for school, sports, immigration, DOT and pre-employment. They also have a very strong Occupational Health program for employers providing care for Workers’ Compensation cases and employee-related testing, such as drug screening, physicals and hearing tests – the most efficient and accessible in the region. The center will create about 20 new jobs in the west side of Danbury.
Doctors Express Urgent Care is committed to educating the public about current, real-time health issues, reaching out via email blasts and social media like Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus with community health alerts. Doctors Express also produces a video series called “The Doctors Express Medical Minute” on their YouTube Channel. The providers address common ailments and preventative tactics people can use to self- manage their health issues between doctor appointments, and in some cases to prevent seeing a doctor.
The Doctors Express Danbury urgent care locations are open Monday through Friday from 8 am-8 pm and weekends from 8 am-5 pm. No appointment is required and care is dispensed with the utmost quality and efficiency.
