FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
September 8, 2022

LAS VEGAS – The Southern Nevada Health District’s newest location is now open and offering services at 2380 E. Fremont St., Las Vegas, NV 89104. The Fremont Public Health Center is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and represents an expansion of the Southern Nevada Community Health Center which first opened at the Health District’s main campus at 280 S. Decatur Blvd in 2019.

The Fremont Health Center location currently offers primary care and family planning services, with plans for expansion in the areas of behavioral health, Ryan White and general dentistry services. Additional Health District programs and services at this location include Environmental Health programs and Food Handler Safety Training Cards. Food Handler Safety Training Cards will be available by appointment at a later date.

“Four years ago, we opened the precursor to our community health centers when our Family Health Care Center began offering limited primary care services,” said Dr. Fermin Leguen, District Health Officer for the Southern Nevada Health District. “Since that time, we have expanded our services and are now a part of the federal system of community health centers, providing a vital range of high quality and affordable health care options to underserved populations,” said Dr. Leguen.

For more information about the services available at both community health center locations, go to snchc.org/location/.
