MUSC Health is making changes to some Rutledge Tower services over the next several years to help make care easier to access across the Charleston area. If your care is affected, we will give you the information you need before your appointment changes. Our goal is to make each move as smooth as possible and to keep you informed every step of the way.
You can continue to get the care you need during these transitions. In most cases, you will see the same provider, but your appointment may move to a different location. If that happens, MUSC Health will contact you directly with the new location, directions and any other details you need before your visit.
Until you hear from MUSC Health, please go to the location listed in your appointment information. Because services will move at different times, this page will be updated as plans are finalized so you can check back for the latest information.
