Open seven days a week with extended hours, board certified adult and pediatric-trained doctors will care for families at this new location.

This facility is the 37th Florida Hospital Centra Care in Florida and the fifth in Volusia County. Other Florida Hospital Centra Care locations include Daytona Beach, DeLand, Orange City, and Port Orange.

As Floridas original urgent care, we've been able to serve individuals and communities by providing fast and convenient care for urgent, non-emergency medical needs for more than three decades, says Florida Hospital Centra Care President and CEO Scott Brady, MD. "Which is why we're excited to expand our network to include Ormond Beach and its surrounding areas."

Because time is valuable, Florida Hospital Centra Care offers an online reservations system, to schedule to see a doctor when its convenient. Knowing that injuries and illnesses can happen at the most unexpected moments, walk-ins are always welcome.
