AtlantiCare will open its first Urgent Care Center in Atlantic City at the site of the new Stockton University Atlantic City Campus in September, officials from Stockton and AtlantiCare announced yesterday.

“We are pleased to participate in the Atlantic City Gateway Project as we continue to increase access to care for those who live, work in, and visit Atlantic City and the surrounding region,” said Margaret Belfield, executive vice president and chief operating officer, AtlantiCare. “Our history of serving Atlantic City began in 1898 when we opened what was then called Atlantic City Hospital. Over the years, we’ve enhanced our care and expanded our services. We’ve long worked with community partners, including Stockton, to identify ways to work together to meet the health and wellness needs in our region. We look forward to providing services on Stockton’s beautiful new campus.”
