Baptist Health is expanding services in Calvert City with a 3,000 square foot facility. The group hopes to open the U.S. HWY 62 location by November.

The medical center will offer primary care, radiology and lab services. The medical center has also bought 10 acres off I-24 where it plans to build an outpatient health and wellness center.

Baptist Health regional executive director William Brown says the goal is to provide Marshall County convenient access to health care.

The medical center will also launch Project Fit America at Calvert City Elementary School this October, which will provide fitness in education programming.
