Another innovation out of the Twin City. Novant Health opened a new all-in-one comprehensive care center for patients near Hanes Mall Boulevard. This is the first time the Winston-Salem based health care provider has combined all of its diagnostic and treatment services into one dedicated outpatient location.

The 9,000-sqft clinic located at 2025 Frontis Plaza Blvd. will offer advanced care for those with heart disease and pulmonary hypertension. Medical experts say both conditions can be “silent killers” because their symptoms are often ignored and lead to devastating effects if left untreated.

Patients will have direct access to a team of heart failure specialists, advanced practice providers, pharmacists, nurses, and social workers at the clinic. The hope is to get patients the care they need while avoiding hospitalization.

That’s not all. Novant Health plans to launch a mechanical circulatory support program next year in the Triad geared toward assisting patients during their recovery.
