NEW YORK (WCBS 880) -- CityMD is set to temporarily close 19 of its locations in New York and New Jersey due to staffing issues.
The urgent care network announced the closure Tuesday, which will go into effect Wednesday. It’s not clear when they will reopen.
“To preserve our ability to staff our sites, we are temporarily closing certain locations effective tomorrow, December 22. It is our hope that closing sites now will best allow us to avoid future closures as this surge continues,” CityMD said in a statement.
A total of 13 New York City locations will close, along with two on Long Island, one in Westchester and three in New Jersey.
“Continuing to provide these services to the community is a top priority; however, our physicians and teammates are also a priority,” CityMD said. “With 150 locations, we’re hopeful any patients affected by temporary closings should still have easy and convenient access to a CityMD location.”
