ASHEBORO — Construction has begun on a new urgent care facility in Asheboro.
Fast Pace Urgent Care will be located at 508 N. Fayetteville St., between Hunsucker Printing and El Amigo Tires.
Fast Pace Health, its parent company based at Franklin, TN, has a network of more than 285 facilities in Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Indiana, Alabama and Arkansas. The Asheboro center will be the third in North Carolina, along with those soon to open in Morganton and Spindale.
The Asheboro facility will be approximately 3,600 square feet and is expected to be ready for opening in April or May.
It’s interesting to note that, according to Randolph County GIS, the site was once a part of the Randolph County fairground, which included land from Hunsucker Printing to Betts Street, from Fayetteville Street to beyond Tryon Street.
Fast Pace Urgent Care was founded in 2009 with the first clinic in Collinwood, TN. The company sent the following press release:
“Fast Pace Health is opening a new walk-in urgent care clinic at 508 N. Fayetteville St., Asheboro, in the spring of 2025. This convenient Fast Pace Health location will be open seven days a week with extended weekday and weekend hours for current residents and surrounding Randolph County communities.
“Our new facility is designed with your health needs and convenience in mind, featuring multiple exam rooms, on-site labs, X-ray capabilities, medication prescriptions and refills.
“‘Our mission to improve the health of those we serve remains true, and we aim to bring that commitment of providing a comfortable, stress-free and professional health care experience to Asheboro,’ said Fast Pace Health CEO Greg Steil. ‘Our staff of experienced clinicians will provide comprehensive health services that meet the needs of the community.
“‘We have built our name and reputation on our compassionate, reliable and affordable approach to health care with services that can be scarce in smaller communities,’ he said.
“‘Patients need immediate solutions with our safe and convenient Asheboro location. The clinic will offer treatment for a wide range of illnesses with walk-in urgent, primary and preventative health care services. We also offer scheduled service for occupational health care needs.’
