Vernon, welcome your newest walk-in clinic.

CareConnect I.D.A Pharmacy, located at 5301 25th Ave., is not only a pharmacy, but now offers walk in services for a doctor.

From Monday-Thursday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m, Dr. Morgan Campbell will be accepting those in the community to drop in and get checked for whatever ailments they have. Campbell used to run a clinic in the Abbotsford area.

The clinic has been open for nearly two weeks and is currently the only operating clinic in the city, besides the Urgent and Primary Care Clinic.
