LANCASTER – Several Fairfield Medical Center offices that were impacted by flood damage over the weekend have been temporarily relocated to ensure that patients can continue to receive these services without interruption.
The impacted offices were all located in FMC’s Main Street Lancaster location in the Kroger shopping plaza off East Main Street. FMC’s Main Campus, located adjacent to these offices, remains open and was not impacted by the flooding, according to a press release.
Impacted offices:
These offices, with the exception of Fairfield Medical Urgent Care and Occupational Health, have been temporarily moved to the following locations. FMC is in the process of identifying a temporary home for Urgent Care and Occupational Health. In the meantime, patients who require urgent care services are urged to call their primary care provider or visit one of FMC’s Emergency Department locations.
Temporary locations:
Patients who have an upcoming appointment scheduled at any of the impacted offices will be contacted by an FMC representive to confirm the new location of their appointment. Patients who have questions or are seeking walk-in services are encouraged to call the office where the appointment is scheduled; all phone numbers for these locations have not changed and remain operational.
John R. “Jack” Janoso, Jr., FMC president and CEO, said there is no timeline for when the offices will return to their original locations. In the coming weeks, there is a possibility that the locations for these services will change as the organization implements a long-term plan of action.

“Our Main Street Lancaster offices took in a significant amount of water over the course of two days and, unfortunately, they are not operational at this time,” Janoso said in the release. “FMC is committed to finding temporary homes for the displaced offices to ensure that we can continue to maintain these essential outpatient services for our community.”
