Third Danbury AFC Urgent Care Center to Open

American Family Care (AFC), the nation’s leading provider of urgent care, continues to expand its footprint by opening a third walk in center in Danbury. This addition marks the tenth American Family Care location to open in state of Connecticut. Conveniently located at 74 Newtown Rd., the new center has access to ample parking and is a state-of-the-art facility equipped with an onsite lab and digital x-ray. The opening is slated for early June 2017.

“We’re excited to continue fulfilling our mission of making quality health care accessible and economical with the opening of our third center in the heart of Danbury,” said Tom Kelly, owner of several Connecticut AFC locations. “The opening of this location gives us the opportunity to serve an underserved market, bringing quality health care while saving patients time and money. We believe urgent care is the future of health care in Connecticut, which is why we have continued expanding in the state," says Ron Krippner, Kelly’s business partner.

According to Kelly, it’s the right time to choose urgent care as more patients demand quality care at an affordable price with times that are convenient to them. "When a patient is not feeling well or they need immediate attention they do not want to wait," Kelly said. "It's about instant access to excellent care.”

Construction on the new site in Danbury is underway.  The location is adjacent to the new Texas Roadhouse and is housed in a mini strip center near a dental provider and cellular store.  We invite local residents, business owners, and the community to stop in once the building is complete. Our services will include care for a variety of purposes: minor illnesses and injuries, sore throats, cuts, stitches, ear and eye infections, fractures, flu symptoms, minor burns, animal bites, rashes, allergic reactions and more. Businesses will also be able to benefit from  AFC Danbury’s occupational medicine and workers compensation services.

All American Family Care centers are designed, equipped and staffed to provide accessible urgent care and minor emergency treatment.  Each clinic features a high-tech, high touch approach, including digital x-rays, on-site lab testing, state of the art diagnostics, and electronic medical records.  The clinics are staffed by kind, caring and compassionate health care professionals. The center will be open Monday – Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and weekends from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. No appointments are necessary.
