“With this addition, we are working full stop to meet the needs of domestic and international travellers and the airport community.”
BWI Marshall Executive Director Airport Ricky Smith emphasised that the airport’s highest priority remains the health and safety of our customers and employees. He added: “We are excited that FirstCall Medical Center will offer convenient, accessible health care and on-site testing for the travelling public and the airport community.”
FirstCall Medical Center patients can make appointments and complete paperwork in advance for ease in self-check-in and treatment. The clinic – which also welcomes walk-ins – accepts most major insurance plans and offers self-pay options for all services.
Dr. Elfenbein said: “I am pleased to bring a full-service urgent care centre to BWI Marshall Airport. We have multiple sites in Anne Arundel, Howard and Prince George’s Counties and are very excited to be joining the BWI family.
