MONROE - Plans are underway to expand the Family Medicine services at Monroe Clinic. The expansion is designed to meet requirements of the Family Medicine Residency Program while providing additional room for new providers joining the Monroe Clinic team.

The expansion will make it easier for customers to schedule an appointment with a primary care provider more quickly and allows the clinic to accommodate the needs of increasing numbers of residency physicians, clinic officials said in a news release.

Family Medicine services will expand to occupy the northern portion of the lower level clinic building. Other services moving include Employee Wellness (Occupational Health Services), Pediatrics Medicine, and General Surgery. The relocations will begin May 16. The move by Employee Wellness into the clinic building lower level will be complete by mid-June when Pediatrics Medicine moves to the clinic building first floor.

Monroe Clinic volunteers will help customers find their way about the Monroe Clinic campus during the renovation and relocation. Patients and visitors are encouraged to seek out volunteers in red shirts or any Monroe Clinic employee for help finding their way.

Monroe Clinic valet service is available Monday through Friday.
