HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — Huntsville Hospital Health System's latest addition, the Gateway Medical Clinic, is set to open its doors on May 1, providing primary care for people 18 and up. The new clinic will be located just outside Gate 9 of Redstone Arsenal, at 6000 Redstone Gateway SW, Suite 500.
Dr. Rachel M. Jones, a former U.S. Army Major and, most recently, HH Physician Care at Madison will lead the clinic. “Being an experienced Army physician, the challenges of managing my patients daily, along with meeting required Army standards, made for an incredibly rewarding experience,” Dr. Jones said. “It also gave me a unique perspective on medicine and an amazing opportunity to better connect with patients, both military and civilian. I look forward to using all that I’ve learned throughout my career to lead the new HH Gateway Medical Clinic to great heights.”
The Gateway Medical Clinic will offer primary care services, laboratory testing, ultrasounds, physical examinations, preventive health screenings, coordinated management of patients with chronic medical conditions, and vaccinations for those traveling.
“Increasing the footprint of our primary care services is critical for addressing the growing health care needs of our community,” said Josh Hewiett, Senior Vice President of HH Physician Services. “By opening Gateway Medical Clinic, we are not only expanding medical services but also fostering stronger patient-provider relationships, promoting preventive care and helping improve health outcomes for individuals in our area.”
The Gateway Medical Clinic will be open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., with a break for lunch from noon to 1 p.m. They accept a wide range of insurance plans, such as Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. For more information about the clinic, you can visit here.
