Doctor's Walk-In Clinic Officially Changes Name to MedExpress Urgent Care

Doctor's Walk-In Clinic, a trusted urgent care provider in the Tampa Bay market since 1980, has officially been re-named MedExpress Urgent Care as of February 15, 2011. MedExpress acquired the group of eight centers in January 2009. The re-named centers will remain at their current locations and continue serving Tampa Bay area residents. The inaugural MedExpress branded urgent care center opened in Largo in mid-December.

"We're thrilled to be completing the final stage of converting Doctor's Walk-In Clinic to MedExpress. The change is in name only. The experience our patients have come to expect at Doctor's Walk-In Clinic will still be there," said MedExpress CEO Frank Alderman, MD. "Our staff and medical teams have long established a commitment to exceeding the expectations of our patients by providing quality urgent care that is friendly, convenient and affordable. These are values we have always shared with Doctor's Walk-In Clinic."

"We look forward to continuing our service to the Tampa Bay area as MedExpress Urgent Care," said Doctor's Walk-In Clinic Medical Director Kimberly Gibson, MD. "Since our partnership with MedExpress began two years ago, we've held a mutual commitment to providing exceptional patient care to our community. Everyone is excited to be taking the next step and looks forward to the future."
