The new Urgent Care is located at 52nd and Troost Ave, located on the ground floor of the North Parking Garage. The clinic on Troost Ave will open early this winter.
“Saint Luke’s has a long history of providing the Kansas City community with the best care close to home whenever possible,” said Daphne Bascom, vice president, population health for Saint Luke’s Health System. “Rockhurst University shares Saint Luke’s commitment to excellence and to our community, which makes them a natural fit when providing high-quality health care for people close to where they live and work.”

“Rockhurst University is excited to partner with Saint Luke’s Health System to bring a convenient and high-quality health care option to the central area of Kansas City. Not only will this benefit our student, faculty and staff population, it will provide critical services to our surrounding neighbors and is another example of Rockhurst being in the city for good,” said Matt Quick, Ph.D., vice president for student development and athletics and dean of students.
