Blanchfield Expands to Clarksville

By Chris Taylor

Fort Campbell, KY – Fort Campbell's Blanchfield Army Community Hospital is outsourcing much needed additional space at Clarksville's Gateway Medical Center. Its Community-Based Primary Care Clinic is planned to soon be housed in a 12,000 square foot suite at Gateway's Medical Office Building One. Some 7,000 active-duty soldiers' family members who live in the city can find healthcare there. The Clarksville Leaf Chronicle reports the move is expected to dramatically shorten the commute of many patients and relieve pressure from the Fort Campbell facilities.
