Medical Care in Clarksville, TN -- What Happens When You Get Sick?
by Janie Curtis
Living in that chic one bedroom apartment in Clarksville may be a great experience most of the time, but when you get sick, it could start to feel like the loneliest place on earth! So, who can you turn to when the germs start to invade?
You'll be happy to learn that there are a ton of medical care options in Clarksville!
The biggest medical facility in the area is the Gateway Medical Center. Located just off I-24, this hospital may be several miles from your Clarksville apartment, but if you're really sick, it's definitely worth the drive! Inside, you'll find more than 150 doctors who specialize in a near-endless array of fields. Whether you need to be admitted, can be treated as an outpatient, or simply need a place to have a bunch of diagnostic tests run, this is the place to go.
One of the most impressive facilities at the Gateway Medical Center is the Chest Pain Center. As a nationally accredited facility, the Chest Pain Center has proven that it's more than capable of handling cardiac emergencies.
But what if your illness isn't an emergency?
There are a number of private doctors' practices all over town. Some of them are affiliated with the Gateway Medical Center, but if you're looking for a doctor that's a little bit closer to your apartment, you'll have plenty to choose from. Like most everything else in Clarksville, the biggest selection can be found along Wilma Rudolph Blvd.
What if it's the weekend, and your doctor isn't available?
Instead of heading to the hospital, you can take advantage of one of Clarksville's urgent care centers. There are a couple of them sprinkled around town, and they'll be far less crowded than the emergency room.
What about more specialized medical care?
Clarksville's got that, too!
The Behavioral Healthcare Center is designed to handle everything from psychiatric diagnoses, to inpatient rehab programs, to individual and family therapy. There are even classes you can take here to learn how to manage your stress!
If you're dealing with the horrors of cancer, you'll be relieved to learn that Clarksville is home to a satellite clinic of Vanderbilt University Medical Center's Department of Radiation Oncology. Here, you'll have access to one of the most state-of-the-art facilities in all of Tennessee. In fact, the Department of Radiation Oncology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center is the only place in Tennessee that has been designated a Comprehensive Cancer Center by the National Cancer Institute.
Who knew you'd have access to such great medical care when you decided to get an apartment in Clarksville?
