South Haven Township leaders have announced that Corewell Health Lakeland Hospitals will be opening a new 15,000-square-foot urgent care facility in the community. The center will provide x-rays, labs, and doctor services that are currently lacking in the area, helping to reduce the strain on local emergency services that often have to transport patients to hospitals outside of town.

Why it matters

The new Corewell urgent care facility will benefit not just South Haven Township, but also the neighboring communities of Casco Township, Geneva Township, and the city of South Haven, which all share emergency services. The center is expected to provide faster care for residents needing urgent attention and reduce the burden on the South Haven Area Emergency Services, which currently transports 40% of urgent care patients out of town.

The details

The new Corewell Health Lakeland Hospitals integrated care center will be located at 71989 County Road 388 in South Haven Township. The 15,000-square-foot facility will offer x-rays, labs, and doctor services that are currently lacking in the area. Corewell plans to break ground on the project this year and open to the public in 2027.

  • Corewell Health Lakeland Hospitals presented plans to the South Haven Charter Township Board of Trustees in April 2026.
  • Corewell plans to break ground on the new urgent care facility later this year (2026).
  • The new integrated care center is expected to open to the public in 2027.

What they’re saying

“South Haven Township, Casco Township, Geneva Township, the city of South Haven — all could greatly use the services that they're looking to provide there with their urgent care. They're looking to do x-rays labs there. They're looking to have doctors come in and do care here that we aren't currently getting.”

— Ross Stein, South Haven Charter Township Supervisor

“With us having 40% of our calls going out of town, that's putting a strain on our local fire and ambulance service. Instead of being able to drop a patient off here in town and get back in service — it's about an hour — but by the time we need to go out of town and get back, that's a three-hour trip.”

— Ross Stein, South Haven Charter Township Supervisor

“She gave a wonderful presentation on their commitment to the area, and there was even questions from the audience, hoping that they do extremely well with the services that they're going to provide, and hopefully we'll be able to provide additional services in the future.”

— Ross Stein, South Haven Charter Township Supervisor

What’s next

Corewell Health Lakeland Hospitals plans to begin construction on the new urgent care facility in South Haven Township later this year, with the goal of opening the center to the public in 2027.

The takeaway

The new Corewell urgent care center will be a significant addition to the healthcare options available in South Haven Township and the surrounding communities, helping to reduce the strain on local emergency services and provide faster, more convenient care for residents in need of urgent medical attention.
