Clarks Summit Practice scheduled to open Oct. 9
The Wright Center for Community Health Clarks Summit Practice, 1145 Northern Blvd., remains closed as crews continue to address water damage from September’s severe flooding in South Abington Township.
Crews have been busy ripping out flooring, repairing water-damaged walls, and drying out the building using industrial fans. With more work to do, however, the timeline needs to be extended to ensure that the work is completed to meet the quality and safety standards we must provide our patients, staff, and learners. As a federally funded Graduate Medical Education Safety-Net Consortium and Essential Community Provider, we aim to resume delivering comprehensive, nondiscriminatory safety-net primary health services at this location for patients and families as soon as possible.
The clinic’s targeted opening date is Monday, Oct. 9. Until then, patient appointments and staff, along with residents, continue to be redeployed as indicated below:
● Patients of Drs. William Dempsey and Douglas Klamp have been notified that their scheduled appointments have been moved to The Wright Center for Community Health Scranton Practice, 501 S. Washington Ave., Scranton. Internal Medicine and Family Medicine residents will follow their faculty attendings to Scranton for this period of time. Dr. Klamp has notified the chiefs.
● Patients of Jennifer Kalinowski, DNP, have been notified that their scheduled appointments have been moved to The Wright Center for Community Health North Scranton Practice, 1721 N. Main Ave., Scranton.
● Patients of Angelo Brutico, PA-C, and Stephanie Hill, LPC, have been notified that their scheduled appointments have been moved to The Wright Center for Community Health Scranton Counseling Practice, 329 Cherry St., Scranton.
Regular updates will be available on our website at TheWrightCenter.org/news and on our social media channels.
