Finding Us: This clinic is located on the Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center campus near 21st Street and Cliff Avenue. Due to on-campus construction and some road and parking lot closures, we recommend you allow extra time to get to your destination. Patients visiting clinics in Plaza 1 can use the surface parking lot adjacent to the building or use the valet service at the entrance. For additional parking, it’s best to access the free ramps via 20th Street, go to street level, and take outdoor sidewalks south to Plaza 1 (10th Avenue sidewalk to the east of the construction site). Please reserve the surface lot for Plaza 1 and valet for patients with limited mobility only. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.  See the latest map and construction updates.
