Patient experience “I liked the quick access, the privacy, and most of all, it prevented me from having to take time off work. I was able to accomplish this easily on my break because of the handy location to my work site. Without this service, I would have had to take time off work, drive almost seven miles to my doctor’s office, and wait. It also saved me fuel costs.” - Providence Health eXpress patient BeforeDuringAfter Patient calls direct line to Providence Health eXpress to schedule a same-day appointment, conveniently located at the patient’s workplace.
