Elizabethton officially welcomed a new healthcare center as Fast Pace Health cut the ribbon outside of their new building in Elizabethton.

Amanda Johnson, Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Director at the Elizabethton location, was excited about the event and the upcoming grand opening .

“I believe that everyone is super excited to get the clinic up and running,” Johnson said. “We actually had a few people come up and see if we were open today, which is very promising.”

Fast Pace Health is one of the few healthcare organizations in Elizabethton that will be open seven days a week, something Johnson said will be great for the community.

“We are super excited to be able to provide some more help to the community of Elizabethton. I know we are one of only a few places that provide care on Sunday, and while our hours are shorter on Sunday, I think people will be glad to hear that there is somewhere they can go seven days a week,” Johnson said.

“Our staff is ready to get out there and help people all the way from pediatric patients to the elderly,” Johnson said. “One of the main things we are excited about is just giving the community another option in terms of healthcare in Elizabethton.

Fast Pace Health is located at 414 North East Street in Elizabethton, and the grand opening of the facility will be Monday, when they open their doors to patients for the first time.

Fast Pace Health is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m., on Saturday from 8:00 a.m. until 6 p.m., and on Sunday from 1:00 p.m. until 5 p.m. For more information, call the Elizabethton office at (423) 666-6174.
