Quincy Medical Group Announces QMG Now, Offering Patients Immediate Access to Care

June 08, 2020

QUIN­CY, IL – You can’t pre­dict when you’ll get sick or hurt. But, when you’re not feel­ing well, quick care is impor­tant. Since 1986, QMG has offered walk-in, on-demand care to patients. The Ambu­la­to­ry Care Cen­ter (ACC) is excit­ed to announce an expan­sion of their prac­tice: QMG Now.

Start­ing Mon­day, June 8, QMG Now is avail­able for walk-in care sev­en days a week. QMG Now pro­vides imme­di­ate access to QMG’s ACC doc­tors that patients have trust­ed for over thir­ty years. This imme­di­ate care is avail­able at the same cost of a reg­u­lar office vis­it and pro­vides patients with access to spe­cial­ists, advanced imag­ing, test­ing, and oth­er ser­vices at a low-cost.

Dr. Ernest Wal­lace explained that patients should not delay care and says that QMG Now’s expand­ed ser­vices pro­vide a safe, acces­si­ble, and afford­able option for patients at a time when they need it most.

When you’re not feel­ing well or are in pain, quick care is nec­es­sary, but, in many cas­es, the emer­gency room isn’t nec­es­sary,” he explained. QMG Now is here to treat patients for ill­ness or injury. Our team has been here for many years treat­ing patients of the com­mu­ni­ty and meet­ing a vari­ety of needs, this expan­sion allows us to offer more access to care, right when patients need it.”

Dr. Wal­lace added that com­fort and con­ve­nience are impor­tant when it comes to health­care, so QMG Now has enhanced the care expe­ri­ence to meet the needs of patients today, includ­ing offer­ing vir­tu­al vis­its, and car wait­ing which allow patients to check-in from their vehi­cles and be brought direct­ly to an exam room.

We want our patients to be seen quick­ly any way that they feel com­fort­able. We’ve added options for con­ve­nience and adapt­ed our facil­i­ties to con­tin­ue pro­vid­ing an amaz­ing vis­it expe­ri­ence,” he noted.

QMG NOW is locat­ed at 1025 Maine St. Begin­ning Mon­day, June 8, hours will be: Mon­day through Fri­day 7 a.m.-7 p.m., Sat­ur­day 8 a.m.-4 p.m., and Sun­day 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
