PPWNM Now Offering Walk-In Hours at Five Locations

Convenience and flexibilty for patients are two reasons that PPWNM now offers walk-in hours at four locations. New or returning clients may come in for any of our services during these specially designated walk-in hours. Walk-in clients are seen on a first-come, first-served basis; so wait times can vary, and clients may even be turned away if there is no more room. Please note: PPWNM may accept walk-in clients during any regular business hours; however, walk-in clients have the best chance of being served during the designated times listed below.
