HCHC expanding services to New London

A Physicians and Clinics Henry County Health Center of New London will be coming to New London Feb. 1, 2019.

The clinic is a collaboration with Great River Health System, whom HCHC will rent space from to better provide primary care to Henry County residents.

'It should be very seamless,” HCHC CEO Robb Gardner said during a board of trustees meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 18. 'Once February rolls around, we'll take over operations and provide that service.”

The Physicians and Clinics HCHC of New London will serve as a rural health clinic, and the hospital has the same intention for the cities of Winfield and Wayland, Gardner said.

New London Family Health physicians Sylvia Graber and Jessi Richmond will continue to provide services in New London through the physicians and clinics.

New London Family Health was established in 2011 as a comprehensive medical care center for patients of all ages, according to their website.
