 <\/p>\n

Within Marymount University\u2019s Ballston Center, MedStar Health<\/a> has opened a new urgent care location to serve the surrounding community of Arlington, Va., including Marymount students, faculty and staff.<\/p>\n

The location occupies a 3,600-square-foot space on the first floor with six exam rooms, a lab area and 14 dedicated garage parking spaces with two hours of free parking for patients. Specialized services include telehealth consultations during exams for four major specialties (cardiology, emergency, orthopedics and pediatrics), full-body x-ray and on-site interpretation, EKGs, rapid STD testing for females, rapid HIV testing for males and females, and interpretation and ASL.<\/p>\n

MedStar Health Urgent Care at Ballston, while open to the entire Arlington community, will also serve as backup to student health services<\/a> with extended hours or more advanced care for students, faculty and administrators of Marymount. Its opening coincides with the start of the new academic year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to be known as \u2018Arlington\u2019s University,\u2019<\/a> and we consistently seek to build ties throughout the region to support our community\u2019s overall quality of life,\u201d said Dr. Irma Becerra<\/a>, President of Marymount University. \u201cOur agreement with MedStar Health will help serve the health care needs of local residents while complementing the University\u2019s operations. Also, the urgent care site\u2019s coveted location at our Ballston Center campus will ensure that its services reach the greatest possible number of patients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to providing trusted urgent care for the local community of Arlington, Va., as well as for the students, faculty and administrators of Marymount as well as families affiliated with the nearby MedStar Capitals Iceplex,\u201d said Elizabeth Delasobera, MD, vice president and chief medical officer of MedStar Health Ambulatory Services. \u201cIn addition to the many services provided at this location, patients will have access to the vast MedStar Health referral network of hundreds of specialists, if they need it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"MedStar<\/p>\n

The location is the 34th<\/sup> urgent care site in the MedStar Health system that includes offices elsewhere in Northern Virginia, the District of Columbia and central and southern Maryland. All locations are open seven days a week from 8 am-8 pm and serve diverse populations, from young children to seniors. MedStar Health Urgent Care accepts most private insurance as well as in-state Medicaid and Medicare, supplemental insurance and self-pay patients as well as the student health insurance plan for Marymount students<\/a>. Patients can reserve a space online or walk in during all hours of operation and will have access to a secure patient portal to view lab results.<\/p>\n
