First Anniversary Celebrated at New England Urgent Care

New England Urgent Care celebrated its first anniversary in Manchester on May 2nd with an open house at its 370 Middle Turnpike West medical clinic. It is one of four clinics in the New England Urgent Care network.

Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce members, patients and local leaders were in attendance. Refreshments, giveaways, site tours and complementary blood pressure and glucose screenings were provided throughout the day.

“New England Urgent Care is unique because of three critical factors. First, we are the only urgent care in Connecticut staffed with RN/Provider teams experienced in Emergency Medicine capable of treating patients of all ages. Second, where other clinics turn away patients with complex, non-life threatening health issues, our staff is capable of treating them with the same or better outcomes as an ER but in a shorter time and at much less expense. And third, if needed, we are the only urgent care that can direct admit patients to many local area hospitals. These capabilities set us apart from the rest. So, if you haven’t been to New England Urgent Care, I invite you to check us out,” said Medical Director and co-founder Michael Gutman, MD, PhD, FACEP.

New England Urgent Care, founded in 2011, is Hartford County's first Emergency-trained and Certified Urgent Care practice, receiving numerous awards for outstanding patient care. New England Urgent Care has clinics in Bristol, Enfield. Manchester and West Hartford. All are staffed with ER-experienced Provider and RN teams. Its skilled nursing staff provides a high level of patient education and exceptional care during each visit.

As a Certified Urgent Care, New England Urgent Care has the training and on-site equipment including state-of-the-art digital x-rays, blood lab, EKG, respiratory and pharmacy to treat patients of every age — including newborns and the elderly — for a broader range of illnesses and injuries than non-Certified walk-in clinics. New England Urgent Care also performs physical exams for camp, school, sport and work, and offers comprehensive occupational health services.

New England Urgent Care is open 365 days a year from 8 am to 7:45 pm on weekdays and with extended hours on weekends and holidays. No appointment is needed.

New England Urgent Care was co-founded by Dr. Michael Gutman and his wife Yahel Gutman, RN, BSN, YTT-200H, and Clinical Director in 2011. Both have extensive emergency medicine training and have worked in hospital Emergency Departments.
