LEXINGTON,Ky. — CenterWell Senior Primary Care is celebrating the first of its two centers in Lexington – CenterWell Richmond Road – giving seniors in the Bluegrass access to a personalized, care-team approach to healthcare.
CenterWell Richmond Road, located at 3101 Richmond Road, Suite 190, began seeing patients in early July. A second Lexington center, CenterWell Regency Centre, will begin seeing patients in early September, with a grand opening celebration slated for October 18. This second center is located at 171 Lowry Lane, Suite 180, just off Nicholasville Road.
CenterWell’s approach is to invest in its communities and the power of bringing people together. Each CenterWell location includes an onsite activity center that offers free health and fitness programming, games, and wellness activities. These are not only for CenterWell patients but open to any seniors in the community.
CenterWell identifies as a leading health care services business focused on creating integrated and differentiated experiences that put patients at the center of everything it does, the result being quality health care that is accessible, comprehensive, and, most of all, personalized.
CenterWell Richmond Road’s grand opening is set for 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2023. The senior-focused block party event will include tours of the center, low-impact exercises with SilverSneakers, bingo, music, raffles and free treats from Cookies & Cream food truck. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place prior to the celebration at 9:30 a.m.
CenterWell Senior Primary Care is one of the fastest-growing senior-focused, value-based care providers in the country. Together with its sister brand Conviva Care Center, CenterWell Senior Primary Care delivers care to seniors in more than 250 centers across 12 states, with plans to open 30-50 new centers per year through 2025. CenterWell will begin accepting patients at a second Lexington center off Nicholasville Road in a few weeks.
“We’re thrilled to be opening our first center in Lexington and bringing high-quality primary care to seniors in this community,” said Nick Judd, CenterWell market president for Kentucky. “A big part of our mission is removing barriers to care for seniors, allowing more of them to receive primary care in the communities where they live. We want to make it easier and more convenient for seniors to see their doctor and achieve their best health.”
Misha Rhodes, M.D., CenterWell’s chief medical officer for Kentucky, said CenterWell uses an integrated care team that works together to address all aspects of a patient’s health, including physical, mental, emotional and social factors.
“We know that seniors have different needs from other segments of the population. The staff of CenterWell Senior Primary Care have a passion for senior care, and we love showing patients the CenterWell difference,” Dr. Rhodes said. “Our doctors cannot do it alone, so we rely on a care team, which includes nurse care coaches, social workers, clinical pharmacists, and behavioral health specialists, all collaborating on a care plan that is evidence-based and centered on the patient.”
CenterWell Senior Primary Care Richmond Road is staffed by board-certified physician Stella Staley, M.D., and nurse practitioner Denise Jones.
