After the closure of the Martin Luther King facility, help has been a bit hard to find and this looks like a real effort to provide a facility to those who need urgent care, but not hospitalization. BD
LOS ANGELES A medical clinic will open in South Los Angeles Friday, offering another option for the poor and uninsured who relied on the county-run hospital in Willowbrook that was closed last year after losing federal funding. The Charles Drew University Urgent Care Clinic is meant for people who need short emergency room treatment, according to a statement from the university. "This type of clinic is a true safety net for communities suffering from abysmal health inequities and few care options -- and sadly, South Los Angeles fits that description," said Dr. Susan Kelly, president and CEO of Charles Drew University.
