Local family clinic Allegro is expanding its services
SUMMARY: Allegro Family Clinic in Columbus is expanding its offerings by adding Obstetrics and Gynecology services to its primary and pediatric care. President Amy Bogue explains that this expansion aligns with their vision to transform Allegro Plaza into a comprehensive medical center. The new services will occupy the third floor of the medical plaza, which has been underutilized. The clinic was approached by two OBGYNs, prompting the expansion. Bogue aims to enhance Columbus’ medical community, providing broader access to healthcare and retaining patients locally. This step is seen as a pivotal move to strengthen the town’s healthcare infrastructure.
