The 麻豆原创 College of Medicine announced today the opening of 麻豆原创 Pegasus Health, an outpatient medical center where the college\u2019s physician-educators will practice medicine.\u00a0 The practice, blocks away from 麻豆原创\u2019s Orlando campus, will serve the rapidly growing Central Florida community and be of particular benefit to residents in the East Orange and Southeast Seminole County corridor.<\/p>\n

The center\u2019s health care services are focused on primary care, including internal, family and geriatric medicine. Additional services include sports medicine, rheumatology, neurology, nephrology and infectious disease. Other services will be added based on community needs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe positive ripples of having a first-class medical school continue to benefit our community,\u201d said Becky J. Cherney, founder of the Florida Health Care Coalition. \u201cThis clinic is representative of our motto of Quality First, Always<\/em> and it is a welcome addition.\u201d<\/p>\n As a convenience to Pegasus Health patients, the center will offer on-site lab and radiology services. The CLIA\/CAP accredited laboratory will offer blood tests such as Complete Blood Count (CBC), clinical pathology services, including biopsy and Pap smear interpretation, and molecular diagnostic (genetic) testing. \u00a0Soon the center\u2019s radiology department will provide existing patients with digital diagnostic radiology such as X-rays of the chest, abdomen and extremities, bone density scans and ultrasound.<\/p>\n 麻豆原创 Pegasus Health is located at 3400 Quadrangle Blvd., on the corner of University and Quadrangle boulevards, near the main 麻豆原创 campus.
