CHOWCHILLA, Calif. (KFSN) -- Rural Health Network opened a new location in Chowchilla providing the community local access to health care.

The new clinic is located at 1020 Ventura Ave.

The Rural Health network had a grand opening and ribbon cutting on Tuesday.

The facility will offer multiple services that ranges from family medicine, pediatrics, mental care, X-rays, and even dental care.

The clinic says their main goal is to help give local families access to health care without having to drive to another town.



Internal Medicine Physician Dr. Ajay Patal says how important it is for a small town to have access to health care that's nearby.

"It's really hard. Patients have to travel 30 - 45 minutes to even get an X-ray of a hip if they fall. The whole point of this clinic is to kind of bring all of that care to one place, so it's not as hard for these patients to get the care that they need and deserve" said Dr. Patel.

The new location is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
