Nutex Health CEO Dr. Tom Vo said: “Micro-hospitals are the ideal addition to metropolitan areas such as Oklahoma City. They are perfectly positioned to bring fast, efficient, convenient, affordable, and high quality patient care to areas that need it, but without the long waits that most patients encounter at traditional facilities.
“We are excited to be offering both inpatient and outpatient services in such a comfortable environment with experienced dedicated physicians.”
This hospital has a complete service emergency room (ER) with four inpatient beds, on-site laboratory, on-site pharmacy, and in-house imaging services.
Furthermore, the ER department is equipped to handle emergencies for patients of all ages.
