Our Lady of the Angels has opened a new Family Medicine Clinic on Avenue B, a primary care clinic that provides personalized, comprehensive healthcare for the whole family, seven days a week.

This new primary care access point offers traditional primary care, by appointment, as well as convenient, walk-in access, solving for your urgent care needs and offering after-hours primary care options. You can get the care you need when you need it at a price you can afford. It’s urgent care access without the urgent care co-pay.

Located at 106 Ave. B in Bogalusa, Family Medicine Clinic at Avenue B is led by family medicine doctor Cori Sumrall, DO, physician assistant Ashley Little, PA-C, and nurse practitioners Susette Dean, NP, and Kimberly Salsman, NP. This team specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of a broad range of illnesses and medical issues and provides preventive and urgent healthcare at a primary care cost. Services include comprehensive annual wellness visits, physical exams, treatment of minor injuries, and evaluation and care of chronic or long-term conditions.

Dr. Sumrall and Ashley Little, PA-C, have relocated from their clinic at 1616 S. Columbia St. to this new clinic space. They continue to provide comprehensive, personalized family medicine by appointment only, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. Call 985-730-6970 to schedule an appointment.
