Q: Why is Novant Health looking to expand in Western North Carolina?

Novant Health has been a growing part of Western North Carolina for years now. Whether through our management partnership with Ashe Memorial Hospital in Jefferson, our Novant Health GoHealth Urgent Care clinics or now, through the care provided at specialty clinic locations in Asheville, we are committed to serving patients in this region.

Novant Health is a non-profit healthcare system. That means the revenues we make over expenses get returned to the communities we serve, in the form of financial assistance for care, free community health screenings and outreach, and more.

Said more simply, Novant Health puts people over profits. That’s why we’re focused on making advanced healthcare more accessible to people in Western North Carolina. We believe you shouldn’t have to leave the place you love to get the healthcare you deserve.

We’re forming strong relationships with Western North Carolina physicians and community leaders. As we grow in the region, we’re listening to those experts, who know their patients and communities best. Longtime, trusted doctors in this area are now part of the Novant Health family – and we’re looking forward to building a legacy of health and well-being in this area, with their help.
