CoxHealth breaks ground on new Marshfield clinic


CoxHealth Center Marshfield is moving – and growing. Ground has broken on a new clinic, located at 1245 Banning St. in Marshfield, to serve a growing need for Webster County residents. The clinic will have 10,400 square feet of space – more than tripling the size of its current facility.


“Since our first clinic in Marshfield was established more than 20 years ago, we have seen the need in the community grow considerably,” says David Taylor, corporate vice president at CoxHealth. “This new facility will provide for the growth that has and continues in and around the community, and offers greater access to our patients.”  


The new facility will provide 18 rooms for patient care. Its current providers – Wm. Shannon Kelly, MD, Jennifer Aldridge, FNP, and Anna Dryer, FNP – can continue to grow their practices and allow for the addition of four other individuals, bringing the total number to seven. The facility will also be designed to accommodate specialists that may periodically see patients at the clinic, and there will be space that may be utilized for local health education programs.


The clinic will also encompass CoxHealth’s growing telemedicine program by offering patients remote diagnosis and consultative services via digital communications.

The facility is slated to be completed in the spring of 2017.
