On Sept. 22, Vanderbilt Health opened a new walk-in clinic in Bellevue. The new facility joins a growing number of Vanderbilt Health Walk-In Clinics already open in Nashville, Brentwood, Cool Springs, Franklin and Spring Hill.

Board-certified Vanderbilt physicians and nurse practitioners are always on site, and no appointments are necessary. The clinic is offering advanced services such as EKG, lab testing and X-rays, with immediate results, in an effort to save patients time ... and possibly a trip to an ER. In addition, clinicians will take care of a range of common illnesses, administer vaccines, offer preventive services including drug screens and pregnancy testing, and care for sprains, strains and other minor injuries.

Located on Hwy. 70S, the clinic is open Mon.-Fri. from 7:30 am-7:30 pm, and Sat.-Sun. from 8 am-5 pm.
