Multicare Coming Soon

  • Post author:

For East Wallingford residents too pained to make it all the way over to the Zoomcare on Stone Way, you’ll soon have a closer EMS-emergency-medical-service-logooption. Urgent Care by Multicare is building out a new location in the old Hollywood Video / Emerald City Liquor building across from Dick’s.

Says the Multicare web site:

An urgent care clinic can be a good option at night or on weekends when you or your child’s doctor may not be in the office. At MultiCare Urgent Care clinics, you can get x-rays, stitches and care for a wide range of minor injuries and illnesses that aren’t life threatening, yet require medical attention on the same day.

Given its location, I imagine cholesterol screening would be a good addition, as well.

I don’t know much else, but the construction workers I spoke with tell me the plan calls for the first patient to be treated there on October 4th.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Be aware that they do not take Medicare, so if you are 65, they will not treat you. Medicare has to be primary regardless of additional health insurance. I have no idea why. This has been my experience, anyway.

    I cut my healthcare costs in half by watching surgeries on youtube.com and learning to do them myself. Says a lot about America when young people pay others to do things we old folks pick up from videos!
