WTEN/News10 reported on the opening of the Capital Region’s newest urgent care center in Rensselaer by St. Peter’s Health Partners and WellNow Urgent Care.

From the story:

Doors opened at the new facility—located at 573 N. Greenbush Road in Rensselaer—on Wednesday, March 17. It will be open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. with no appointment necessary—even for COVID testing. Treatment will be available for ailments like sprains, burns, colds, and allergies, while offering onsite X-rays, lab testing, and physicals.

Urgent care centers are a vital option for Americans seeking health care, providing access to fast, quality care. WellNow patients can walk in or schedule a visit online. The online portal also offers real-time updates on wait times at the office. WellNow also says it accepts most insurance.

“We’re thrilled to welcome new patients to our Rensselaer center and to welcome back patients who visited our previous location on Empire Drive,” said Dr. James K. Reed, President and CEO of St. Peter’s. “Supporting the health of the community is our top priority, and we’re excited to be bringing even more care and convenience to local residents.”
