Katie Martin, PA-C, Joins UK St. Claire Urgent Care Team

Katie Martin, PA-C, will be joining the group of providers at the new Urgent Care Center that is set to open next month in Morehead.

As a native of Morehead, Martin is a familiar face for the community. She completed her undergraduate degree at Morehead State University, then continued her education to become a physician assistant at the University of Kentucky.

“I actually got into healthcare through respiratory therapy,” said Martin. “As a respiratory therapist, I got the opportunity to work alongside many health professionals. The work of physician’s assistants really intrigued me, and now I can practice the same work at the new Urgent Care Center.”

Martin is excited to practice in the Urgent Care setting and bring the new level of care for SCH to the area.

“Urgent Care has been a need in the Morehead area for a long time,” said Martin. “Having access to care seven days a week for extended hours is going to really help our community and reduce patients’ need to travel out of town so they can get the care they need quickly.”

The St. Claire Urgent Care Center will be located at the St. Claire Outpatient Center (1028 East Main St., Morehead, KY, 40351). Care will be available Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 8 PM, Saturday from 8 AM to 4 PM, and Sunday from Noon to 4 PM.
