The 50,000-square-foot, $34 million facility will allow the center to double the number of patients it serves and triple patient visits, officials said. In 2011, the previous location of the health center served more than 7,500 people through 30,000 visits.

It has a CVS pharmacy and a Citizens Bank office.
