CHARLESTON, S.C. – Novant Health announced the opening of West Ashley Internal Medicine, a new primary care clinic designed to expand access to high-quality, patient-centered care in the Charleston area. The clinic is located at 10-B Farmfield Avenue, Charleston, SC 29407.
The new practice will open with Sarah Minter, DO, an experienced primary care physician dedicated to building long-term relationships with patients and helping them manage their health at every stage of life.
“Expanding access to primary care is one of the most important ways we can meet the growing health needs of families in the Charleston area,” said Kirsten Royster, president of Novant Health’s Charleston area. “With the opening of West Ashley Internal Medicine, we’re ensuring that more patients have convenient access to trusted providers close to where they live and work.”
Primary care plays a vital role in preventive health and in the early detection and management of chronic conditions. Novant Health is planning to open additional primary care clinics throughout the Tri-County.
Novant Health has also hired a dedicated primary care patient navigator who can help patients explore which provider is right for them – and set them up with same-day and next-day appointments - by calling 843-471-1239.
“My goal as a primary care physician is to get to know my patients, understand their health history and partner with them to make decisions that improve their long-term well-being,” Minter said. “I’m excited to be part of Novant Health’s commitment to bring more options for high-quality care to West Ashley and the greater community.”
In addition to the new West Ashley location, Novant Health also recently welcomed Stewart Trimble, MD, at Novant Health Sewee Family Medicine at 570 Long Point Road in Mount Pleasant. Together, these expansions reflect Novant Health’s ongoing commitment to meet the growing demand for primary care across the Charleston area, along with advanced services at Novant Health East Cooper Medical Center.
Appointments at West Ashley Internal Medicine are now available online or by calling the primary care new patient navigator at 843-471-1239.
