Coming to Downtown Red Oak Early 2027

Montgomery County Memorial Hospital (MCMH) is launching Downtown Care, an innovative healthcare destination that will bring dental care, primary care, and urgent care together under one roof.

Designed to improve access to healthcare across Southwest Iowa, Downtown Care will serve Montgomery County and surrounding rural communities with convenient, coordinated care in a single location.


 

A New Model for Rural Healthcare

Downtown Care will become:

  • Iowa's first Rural Health Clinic to integrate dental services
  • MCMH's fourth Rural Health Clinic
  • A convenient one-stop location for comprehensive healthcare services
  • A clinic designed to accept all insurance plans, helping expand access regardless of coverage

The integrated model allows patients to receive multiple types of care from one trusted healthcare system, reducing barriers and improving coordination between providers.

Expanding Access to Care

Downtown Care is being developed through a direct partnership between MCMH and Dr. Truka, with support from state and federal partners focused on strengthening rural healthcare access.

By combining services in one location, the clinic creates a sustainable model that expands access to healthcare while supporting long-term community needs.

Downtown Care represents a new chapter in rural healthcare, bringing more services, greater convenience, and better access to care for the communities MCMH serves.
