Our new Lee Health Center Opens

on Monday, May 15

We are proud to open our brand new Lee Health Center in Leesburg, Georgia on Monday, May 15.

Serving the Lee County community since 1979, we are transforming our long-time location - Lee Medical Arts Center – into this brand new site with a new name, expanded patient services and providers for our community members.

Why did we change the name? We felt that Lee Health Center best fits the medical, vision, dental podiatry, pediatrics, behavioral health and pharmacy services offered at this one location. So much of our patients' medical needs are met under one roof! We'll officially be retiring the name Lee Medical Arts Center as we move to the new location on Monday.

And, while the name may be changing you’ll still see the same highly-trained, highly-skilled providers that you have come to know and trust at our Lee location. We’ve just made sure to upgrade everything to best serve our patients!

We’ve been caring for the Lee County community for over 44 years and we’re so excited to be here for our patients for another four decades.

A huge thank you to the Northwest team for ensuring patients and their families are aware of the changes and the location of their provider's new office.
