The new office will bring essential medical services to South Cape Coral  and the surrounding areas

Jan. 05, 2026 –  Lee Health is pleased to announce the opening of a new convenient care center in South Cape Coral on Tuesday, January 6, 2026. Convenient care offers an alternative to the emergency room for treating non-urgent injuries or illnesses, with experienced physicians and a state-of-the-art clinic.

Cape Coral is one of the fastest-growing cities in Southwest Florida, and the opening of this new location will help ensure access to essential medical services to support the city’s expanding population.

The new convenient care center will be in the former Family Medicine office at 507 Cape Coral Parkway E. and open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. It will be able to treat minor injuries, sprains, strains, cuts, rashes, cold and flu, automotive and work-related injuries, and do school, work, or sports physicals.

It will also offer imaging which includes ultrasounds, CT scans, MRIs, and X-rays, and the medical team can treat illnesses such as urinary tract infections (UTIs), ear infections, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.

“As Cape Coral’s population continues to grow, it’s important for residents and visitors, particularly those without a primary care doctor, to have quick access to healthcare nearby,” said Lee Health’s chief administrative officer for LPG and ambulatory services Kris Fay. “Convenient care offers a reliable option for non-emergency medical issues and helps keep emergency departments available for serious cases during peak times. It enhances access to high-quality, hospital-affiliated care and promotes the health of Cape Coral’s expanding population.”

Lee Health offers five convenient care locations throughout Lee County for high-quality, walk-in medical care for children and adults. All locations are listed here.

Convenient care is appropriate when you have a non-life-threatening emergency, you’re unable to make an appointment with your primary care doctor, or you don’t have a regular doctor. No appointment or referral is required, and most insurance plans are accepted.

The opening of the new convenient care office along Cape Coral Parkway will provide a valuable access point for the Cape Coral community through a centrally located office that can support South Cape Coral and beyond.

The new convenient care location is among Lee Health’s recent initiatives in Cape Coral, aimed at addressing the community’s changing healthcare needs and providing residents with improved access to quality care nearby.

Lee Health at Bimini Square at the corner of Palm Tree Boulevard and Cape Coral Parkway began treating patients in late 2025.

Cape Coral Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and other areas of the campus were expanded to accommodate more patients and specialty services in 2025 as well. The Florida State University College of Medicine Internal Medicine Residency Program is based out of Cape Coral Hospital and an Obstetrics and Gynecological (OBGYN) Residency Program, also in partnership with the FSU College of Medicine, is set to open at the hospital this Summer.

The second phase of the Surfside Facility at Surfside Boulevard and Veterans Parkway is also complete, offering orthopedics, rheumatology and rehabilitation specialists for Cape Coral residents and visitors.

The South Cape Coral convenient care office, along with other expansions, provides residents of Cape Coral and Southwest Florida with greater access to quality medical services near their homes, schools and workplaces. This improved accessibility aims to reduce wait times and ensure faster access to care, fostering better health and well-being for the community now and in the future.
