Crews broke ground Thursday on a new site for Morton Comprehensive Health Services. As part of Vision 2025, Morton will build a 59,000 square foot facility in Lansing Business Park at 1334 North Lansing.

The new facility will allow Morton to increase the variety of services and offer improved coverage.

Lillian Watts-Ray with Morton: "Over 100,000 people in Tulsa without insurance, last year we helped about 45,000, so we're hoping to serve even more people."

Morton is the only federally funded community health center in Tulsa providing medical, dental, lab and X-ray services to individuals who may not be able to afford medical services.
