GREEN BAY, Wis. – Prevea Health is pleased to announce the Prevea Orthopedic Walk-In Injury Clinic, now open within HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center, 1726 Shawano Ave. in Green Bay.
This new service at Prevea offers the community access to same-day care for orthopedic injuries related to sports, recreation or work. No appointment is needed; most insurance plans are accepted, and the clinic is open five days a week, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
“The launch of the Orthopedic Walk-in Injury Clinic reflects Prevea’s commitment to making expert orthopedic care more accessible than ever,” said Luke Mitchell, Executive Director of Orthopedics at Prevea Health. “By eliminating the need for appointments, we’re giving our patients faster access to the care they need, when they need it most. This is a meaningful step forward for Prevea and the communities we serve.”
At the Prevea Orthopedic Walk-In Injury Clinic, patients have quick access to Prevea’s orthopedic specialists - including expert physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners. These providers can deliver time-sensitive evaluations and treatment when sudden muscle, bone or joint injuries occur, and when sprains, strains, swelling, fractures or other acute orthopedic concerns arise.
The Prevea Orthopedic Walk-In Injury Clinic is also supported by Prevea’s full orthopedic team, including Prevea orthopedics and sports medicine surgeons. Through this collaboration, patients receive comprehensive orthopedic care as needed, including evaluations, digital X-ray and imaging services, splinting, bracing and casting treatments. The location of the clinic also allows for easy referral to other specialized providers as needed.
