Covenant Health announced this month that it has acquired 2 Lakeway Urgent Care locations in Lenoir City and the Greater Knoxville, Tennessee, area. With the transaction, the nonprofit now has a total of 9 urgent care locations across the state. By way of history, in August 2023, Covenant Health Urgent Care launched as a joint venture between Covenant Health and Urgent Care Group, which then expanded by acquiring ParkMed Urgent Care. By late last year, the company added 3 Well-Key Urgent Care locations and opened 2 of its own urgent care centers. So far in 2026, Covenant has opened 1 location and made this new acquisition of the Lakeway urgent cares.
Big picture: Urgent Care Group operates about 55 centers under 6 brands in 5 states, according to its website. Be sure to read JUCM this summer for our forthcoming Top 100 list of urgent care operators based on number of locations.
