GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — Northside Hospital has announced plans to take over three urgent care facilities in Gwinnett County.
The hospital group released a press release this week saying they will acquire ChoiceOne Urgent Care of Gwinnett and will partner with the Nashville-based Urgent Care Group to manage and operate three locations.

David Maloney, founder and CEO of Urgent Care Group, added that he is thrilled to partner with Northside Hospital.
“With each additional associate, center, and partner, Urgent Care Group becomes better for the patients and communities we serve," says Maloney.
According to the release, ChoiceOne – Gwinnett employees were notified of the transition last week, and leaders from Urgent Care Group and Northside Hospital are providing in-person and online support and resources.
