Columbus, Waynesville Locations Expand Hours

January 1, 2023 by Keely Knopp

Mercy Urgent Care is expanding operating hours at its Waynesville and Foothills locations beginning January 1, 2023. The Waynesville clinic, located at 124 Frazier St., and Foothills clinic, located at 140 W. Mills St. in Columbus, will now be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week.

“Our mission at Mercy is to make healthcare available to all those who seek it. That mission guides everything we do,” said Operations Director Aaron Styles. “Increasing our center hours in these two communities has become necessary due to recent increases in demand for care. It will result in keeping patient wait times reasonable and ensuring a high quality of care, while meeting the higher demand.”

The hours for the other six clinics remain the same — 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week for the East Asheville, South Asheville, Brevard and Burnsville locations; and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays at the West Asheville and Weaverville locations.
