Albemarle Uwharrie Medical Supply Hub – Leonard Avenue, NC‑24/27 & Charlotte East Corridor
Stanly County links Atrium Health Stanly, Atrium Health Cabarrus, Novant Health, Charlotte trauma centers, Michelin and fiber plants, Morrow Mountain tourism, Pfeiffer University, and Badin Lake recreation. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #1133 at 781 Leonard Avenue keeps Atrium Stanly OR suites, Novant/CMC referrals, Stanly County EMS, industrial clinics, prison infirmaries, and Uwharrie recreation medics stocked without relying on Charlotte warehouses.
Within 35 miles are Atrium Health Stanly, Atrium Health Cabarrus, CMC Main, Novant Mint Hill, CaroMont Regional, NC Correctional Institution for Women (support), Michelin Aircraft Tire, and the NC‑24/27/I‑485 logistics belt. Severe storms, NASCAR events, manufacturing surges, Uwharrie trail rescues, and grid expansions demand a “medical suppliers near me” counter tuned to the Charlotte East corridor—this Leonard Avenue hub delivers.
Albemarle blends legacy mills, expanding EV/aviation suppliers, lake tourism, and collegiate growth. LAC Health supports that ecosystem with generator-backed cold rooms, bilingual (English/Spanish) documentation, and MOUs with Stanly County EM, Atrium Health, and Uwharrie National Forest.
