Advocate Health Care opens new outpatient center in Hoffman Estates
Advocate Health Care’s new immediate care and outpatient center opened Monday in Hoffman Estates and will “expand access to patient care in South Barrington and throughout the northwest suburbs,” according to a press release.
The clinic, located at 4847 Hoffman Blvd., near Illinois Route 59 and Interstate 90, offers primary and immediate care, cardiology, pediatric specialty care, general surgery, urogynecology, rehabilitation, laboratory, mammogram, X-ray and ultrasound.
“Advocate Health Care is excited to expand care to patients in this area,” said Dr. Jacqueline Ivey-Brown, chief medical officer for Advocate Medical Group’s north Illinois area. “This new clinic will allow patients to access high-quality care through a number of services closer to home.”
The clinic will also be home to an additional location of Advocate Health Care’s South Asian Cardiovascular Center, which provides compassionate and culturally sensitive care to those at greater risk for heart disease. Compared to other groups, South Asians are disproportionately at risk for cardiovascular disease. While the group represents about 25% of the world’s population, they make up about 60% of the world’s heart
disease patients, according to the American College of Cardiology.
The first of its kind, Advocate’s South Asian Cardiovascular Center opened in 2012 at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, then expanded to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital and the Western suburbs and now will be offered to patients in the Northwest suburbs at the new clinic, starting later this year.
The new Hoffman Estates clinic is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. To learn more and schedule an appointment, visit us online or call 847-685-4646.
