WESTMEDÂ Medical Group has opened a 13,000-square-foot medical office in a new retail/office/medical building in Greenwich at 644 W. Putnam Ave.
The facility is WESTMED”™s third in the county and ninth overall.
The W. Putnam Avenue office’s soft opening was last month and the ribbon-cutting is Nov. 16, featuring refreshments and tours.
WESTMED”™s first location in Greenwich is the former Putnam Gynecology and Obstetrics of Greenwich office. That location is at 55 Holly Hill Lane, Suite 130, with a satellite office location at 106 Noroton Ave. in Darien. The practice joined WESTMED in June 2015. WESTMED”™s Darien and Holly Hill Lane facilities are exclusively ob/gyn.
“We are looking forward to bringing to lower Fairfield County the highest quality of patient-centered care with many state-of-the art outpatient services for which WESTMED is known, all under one roof,” Simeon Schwartz, president and CEO of the WESTMED Medical Group, said.
The ground floor of the new office will be a walk-in urgent care center, dealing with rashes, sprains, stomach aches, flu symptoms, and eye and ear pain. The office will include advanced laboratory and imaging testing.
“This will give patients living in and around this area the opportunity for prompt, high-quality medical care when a non-emergency injury or illness occurs unexpectedly,” Schwartz said.
The second floor will offer primary care, including internal medicine and pediatrics. Specialty services will include cardiology, otolaryngology, an audiologist, plastic surgery ”” consults only ”” and pulmonology.
Other tenants at the property include a CVS pharmacy, Greenwich Hospital, medical group Next Generation Pediatrics and Zaniac, an after-school STEM-enrichment (science, technology, engineering and math) program.
WESTMED’s Westchester County presence includes six offices. Full-service offices are in Rye, Purchase, New Rochelle, Yonkers and White Plains, handling diagnostic imaging and lab services, and a smaller satellite center in Scarsdale.
Referencing the new Greenwich facility, Schwartz said, “It has a little bit of the diversified flavor of our Ridge Hill location in Yonkers.”
