Walk-in and same-day care available in Reading starting April 1
Reading Health Clinic, owned and operated by Hillsdale Hospital, will open for walk-in visits on April 1, 2026. The clinic will be available for walk-ins from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Patients have the option to make an appointment with their primary care provider if preferred.
“Improving access to care is a key priority for our organization,” said Lindsey Crouch, director of outpatient clinics. “By offering both same-day appointments and walk-in availability, we are creating a more flexible approach that allows patients to be seen promptly.”
