SHAVERTOWN &#8212; Commonwealth Health is appealing to the growing trend of walk-in health care by extending the hours of its Shavertown Clinic.Beginning April 6, the Shavertown location at 176 N. Main St., will offer evening and weekend hours to meet the increasing demand of patients who do not have a primary care physician or who need a checkup but do not have an appointment.The extended hours are 4 to 9 p.m. Mondays through Fridays; 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays; and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays.Physicals and provider visits will be offered during the extended hours, according to Michelle Leandri of Commonwealth Health&#8217;s InterMountain Medical Group. There will be no laboratory or radiology services during these hours. Providers will include physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants.The Shavertown Clinic also houses the practices of six primary care doctors who will continue to see their patients during regular office hours.Leandri said appointments are not necessary for the extended hours clinic and people do not need to be patients of any of the Shavertown doctors to use the walk-in clinic. Most health insurances will be accepted.The phone number for the extended hours clinic is 570-255-2082.
