vybe urgent care, the leading urgent care provider in the greater Philadelphia market, announced the acquisition of Liberty Urgent Care’s centers in Horsham and Hatfield, Pennsylvania, growing vybe’s network from 16 to 18 centers. Both centers will be rebranded as vybe urgent care locations. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The expansion was supported by a recent growth-oriented debt financing vybe completed with Live Oak Bank, which the company will use to pursue additional acquisitions and new center development.
