Flagler Health+ announced the opening of its new primary care and pediatrics office in Palencia. A ribbon-cutting ceremony took place Monday, June 10, outside the new offices. Among guests at the event were representatives from the St. Johns County Chamber of Commerce, Flagler Health+ President & CEO Jason Barrett, Flagler Health+ VP of Primary and Ambulatory Care Dr. Todd Batenhorst, as well as Dr. Juliana Raymaker and Dr. Meredith Brazell, both of whom will be working in Palencia.
“We are excited to bring this comprehensive primary care and pediatrics offering to Palencia,” Flagler Health+ President and CEO Jason Barrett said. “Our team is here to treat patients when they are sick, but most importantly, we are also here to keep you well. Preventive care, behavioral health, disease management and wellness offerings have all been designed with the whole family’s health and well-being in mind.”
Conveniently located within the Palencia community, this opening marks the first expansion of Flagler Health+ since its rebranding this past February. Future expansions are set to include the opening of the Flagler Health+ Village in MuraBella in July and another Flagler Health+ Village in Nocatee in Summer 2020.
Patrick Appolonia, Flagler Health+ communications coordinator, said he was looking forward to establishing the new office in the community.
“At Flagler Health+ we enjoy connecting with the communities we serve, and this event was a great opportunity to do just that as we commemorate the opening of our new Primary Care and Pediatrics office,” he said.
Flagler Health+ is an extension of Flagler Hospital, which has a 130-year legacy of caring for the community. The 335-bed hospital has been named among America’s 100 Best Hospitals out of nearly 4,500 nationwide. Flagler Health+ is located at 120 Palencia Village Drive, Suite 107 in St. Augustine.
