 May 13, 2025  Naples Comprehensive Health (NCH) is expanding access to high-quality, convenient healthcare with the opening of its newest Immediate Care Center in Ave Maria. Located at 5360 Ave Maria Boulevard in the Midtown Plaza, this newly opened center provides walk-in urgent care services with extended hours seven days a week.

The NCH Immediate Care – Ave Maria is open:
• Monday through Saturday: 9 AM – 7 PM
• Sunday: 9 AM – 4 PM

No appointments are necessary, and patients can conveniently check the online waitlist before arriving. Like all NCH Immediate Care Centers, the Ave Maria location offers high-quality, walk-in care for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries for people of all ages, serving as a trusted alternative to emergency room visits.

“Our goal is to meet the healthcare needs of our growing communities by providing accessible, high-quality care close to home,” said Dr. Bryan Murphey, President of the NCH Medical Group. “Ave Maria is experiencing tremendous growth, and we are committed to ensuring families in this area have access to the urgent care they need—when they need it.”

The Ave Maria Immediate Care Center is staffed by highly trained providers who are members of the local community, including Katiana Duran Oliveros, APRN and Kathryn Kirk, APRN. On-site capabilities range from treating minor cuts and sniffles to providing a full spectrum of clinical services which can be found online.

The community is invited to join us at an opening event for the entire plaza on Saturday, May 17, from 3-7pm.
