Catawba Valley Health System (CVHS) is pleased to announce the opening of Catawba Urgent Care of Mountain View in Taylorsville, effective October 19, 2026. Located at 50 Macedonia Church Rd., Suite C, the new clinic becomes the fifth Catawba Urgent Care of Mountain View location.

The Taylorsville location joins existing clinics in Sherrills Ford, Newton, Morganton and Mountain View. This expansion reflects CVHS’ continued commitment to meeting the needs of the communities it serves, including addressing a longstanding gap in access to urgent care in Taylorsville.

“This move will provide yet another access point to our health system as customers may need services that go beyond what an urgent care can provide,” said Dennis Johnson, president and CEO of Catawba Valley Health System. “Examples include primary care practices in our medical group, hospital services, greater connectivity with specialists, advanced imaging and pharmacy access, among others. We’re extremely happy to add this latest location to the CVHS family.”

Johnson added that expansion into urgent care is a key part of the health system’s growth strategy. He also noted that increased accessibility to these urgent care locations could ease the strain on the Emergency Department when non-life-threatening medical needs still require timely same-day medical attention.

Mariane Carna, president of Catawba Valley Medical Group, added, “The opening of our Taylorsville Urgent Care reflects our continued commitment to thoughtful, strategic growth and meeting the evolving healthcare needs of the communities we serve. For many years, residents of Alexander County have faced challenges in obtaining timely medical services without traveling outside their community. This expansion represents an important step in improving access to care while strengthening our presence in a community that has placed its trust in Catawba Valley Health System. As we continue to grow, our priority remains bringing high-quality healthcare closer to home, enhancing connections across our medical group and ensuring patients have the resources and support they need throughout their healthcare journey.”

Catawba Urgent Care of Mountain View provides treatment for illnesses and injuries, along with comprehensive occupational medicine and workers’ compensation services, including drug screens, X-rays, DOT physicals, TB testing and more, supporting businesses of all sizes.
