The primary focus of the network of Overlake Medical Clinics, including the new clinic in Redmond, is to promote health and wellness. Over the past two years, Overlake has focused on adding new primary and urgent care clinics and expanding its physician network to better serve patients in convenient locations close to where they live and work. Each clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and is designed to provide patients with a comfortable healing environment and short wait times.

When used appropriately for non-life-threatening-conditions, Urgent Care can be a cost-effective treatment option, with a co-pay that is usually less than one for an emergency room visit.

The Redmond Urgent Care Clinic will be Overlake’s seventh primary care clinic on the Eastside. The other six clinics are scattered across Bellevue, Kirkland and Issaquah. An eighth primary care clinic will be opening at the Redmond Town Center in spring of 2012.

Overlake Hospital Medical Center is a nonprofit, non-tax-supported regional medical center with a network of medical clinics throughout the Eastside. The hospital is licensed for 349 beds and offers a comprehensive range of services including cardiac care, cancer care, general and specialty surgery, women’s programs, senior care, psychiatric services and it was the first Level III trauma service on the Eastside.

Overlake also participates in a wide range of community outreach activities including health fairs, free health screening events, wellness classes and wellness publications.
