Monday, Aug. 6 marks the day when a building that once helped make people fit will open as a place to help folks become healthy.

Little Company of Mary's Outpatient Care Center at 6700 West 95th St. in Oak Lawn, will provide a variety of services for walk-in immediate care and occupational medicine services. A waiting area will offer many distractions for youngsters.

Residents from Oak Lawn, Evergreen Park and other communities got a glimpse of the facility on Saturday.

The center is on the site of what was once Bally's Total Fitness. The ground-breaking was Sept. 25, 2011.

I walked in August 13,2012 3:30pm with a bad cough, fever, and no voice. There was one other patient in front on me, it took an hour to finally see a doctor about thirty minutes for a strep test result and another thirty for discharge instructions. Worst sevice I have had I should of just went to walgreens walk in clinic it takes 5 min for a strep test. Today I call for a follow up and second culture strep test just to be told there are no dr or nurses until noon, and they said they would follow up with me still haven't heard from them. Not very organize, nice facility but is anyone really working?
