Mercy opens new clinic

Mercy celebrated its newest clinic, Mercy Clinic Occupational Medicine in Rogers, on Jan. 31 with a blessing and ribbon-cutting. Dr. David Sitzes — who is board certified in family medicine — heads the clinic at 1101 S. Horsebarn Road.

Mercy Clinic Occupational Medicine is in an office suite alongside Mercy Therapy Services. Renovation of the occupational medicine space cost about $220,000.

The clinics are part of Mercy’s ongoing $277 million expansion in the region, which includes the addition of a seven-story tower to the Rogers hospital and a large multispecialty facility in Springdale. The tower and Springdale facility are projected to open in August.
