Bon Secours has brought primary care, orthopedics, cardiology and gastroenterology together at a renovated medical center in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, with women’s health services expected to follow in early 2027.
The health system announced the expansion November 10. The Bon Secours Travelers Rest Medical Center occupies the former Travelers Rest Internal Medicine building at 6 S. Poinsett Highway, bringing several practices into one location in northern Greenville County.
The project combines a primary-care practice consolidation with the addition of specialty services. It is a renovation of an existing medical building, not the opening of a new hospital.
Primary Care Practices Combine
Travelers Rest Internal Medicine has consolidated with Gateway Family Practice to form Gateway Primary Care, which continues to provide primary care at the site, Bon Secours said.
Piedmont Orthopaedics – Travelers Rest is also operating from the building. Bon Secours Upstate Cardiology and Bon Secours Gastroenterology are now seeing patients there, adding heart and digestive-health services to the center’s current offerings.
Carolina Women’s Health is expected to open at the same location in early 2027. That service is planned, rather than already available as part of the current expansion.
Bon Secours did not disclose the renovation cost, building size, number of clinicians or expected patient capacity in its announcement. It also did not provide a specific opening date for the planned women’s health practice.
A Single Location for Several Services
The health system said the center is intended to make it easier for patients to connect with primary and specialty care without traveling as far from home.
“This investment reflects our ongoing commitment to making high-quality, compassionate care more accessible throughout the Upstate,” Jeremy Skoog, chief operating officer for Bon Secours Medical Group’s Greenville market, said in the announcement.
“We’re creating a healthcare destination, simplifying the healthcare experience and helping patients connect to the right care without having to travel far from home.”
The announcement describes co-locating providers as a way to support continuity and coordination. It does not report measured changes in appointment wait times, travel distances or patient outcomes.
For the local care market, the immediate change is a broader mix of operating services inside a familiar medical property. The next planned step is the addition of Carolina Women’s Health early next year, which would expand the range of care available at the same address.
