Rockwood plans to open South Valley office
Continued from page 24
Rockwood Clinic of Spokane plans to open a new 4,800-square-foot Primary Clinic in the South Valley. The new clinic at 13221 E. 32nd Ave. location will open mid-May. "Our objective is to make health care convenient," Sasha Weiler, senior director of marketing and communications, said. "This is a great opportunity to provide a primary care location to serve people in that area." Featuring on-site imaging at the facility, family practitioner Dr. Glen Volyn will be seeing patients at this location for general health care and wellness needs. Other staff will include a nurse practitioner, two medical assistants, a receptionist and a scheduler. Hours of operation will be 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The clinic is currently taking appointments and accepting new patients, Weiler said. For more, call 724-4225.
fries hopes to take advantage of the extra room and purchase another longarm quilting machine. "I plan on being here for a long time," Jeffries said. The addition of a second story along with a large business sign now provides a visual presence Jeffries didn't have prior to the renovation. "There was no signage on the building," Jeffries said. "I was afraid to put something on top of the flat roof. We had problems with leakage ever since we bought it." She attributes a 20 percent increase in foot traffic to the increased presence the renovation gives the facility along Sprague Avenue. "I probably get five people a week that just stop in and say, 'How long have you been here?'" Jeffries said. "The building created such a presence that the old building didn't have. It stands out now."
