Grand opening of Culinary Health Center - Craig

Culinary Union celebrates the official grand opening of Culinary Health Center - Craig in North Las Vegas Milestone advances vision of four Culinary Health Centers, establishing the Culinary Health Fund as one of the largest primary care providers in Las Vegas. Las Vegas, NV – On Wednesday, April 2, 2025, the Culinary and Bartenders Unions, along with the Culinary Health Fund, proudly hosted the official grand opening for the third cutting-edge Culinary Health Center. The innovative, high-quality Culinary Health Center - Craig facility, which is located in North Las Vegas, will provide increased access to primary and preventive care to tens of thousands of eligible Culinary and Bartenders Union members and their families. “Today is deeply personal for me. In 1990, I was a single dad bartending at the Horseshoe when I went on strike for nine months to protect health care for my two sons. That experience taught me what solidarity truly means - when workers stand together, there’s nothing we can’t win. Since the Culinary Union was founded in 1935, it has been a generational dream to create state-of-the-art facilities like the Culinary Health Centers. Today, with the opening of our third location, we are living that dream. The Culinary Health Center - Craig represents our commitment to provide high-quality, accessible care for workers and their families - right in the heart of a community where over 32,000 Culinary Union members live,” Ted Pappageorge, Secretary-Treasurer for the Culinary Union. “For decades, Culinary Union has fought for and won health care legislation that has expanded access, strengthened patient protections, ended surprise medical bills, lowered costs, increased transparency, and have benefited all Nevadans and our entire state. This facility is built on the courage and sacrifice of tens of thousands of Culinary Union members who walked picket lines and organized for nearly a century to win health care with dignity. With a fourth center opening next year, the Culinary Health Fund is now one of the largest primary care providers in Las Vegas. Culinary Health Centers are a testament to the strength and power of Culinary Union members - guest room attendants, cocktail and food servers, porters, bellmen, cooks, bartenders, laundry and kitchen workers - who have fought for and won a better life for their families through decades of organizing.” Culinary Health Center - Craig is a state-of-the-art medical facility that includes more providers and services to care for hospitality workers and their families. The 97,000-square-foot, two-story health center features advanced medical equipment, a 2-lane drive-through pharmacy, expanded wellness classrooms, and more. Culinary Health Center - Craig was designed to create a positive and relaxing environment for patients with features such as colorful walls and paintings, as well as comfortable seating areas. The facility has 41 primary care rooms, 2 mental health counseling rooms, 15 dental care rooms, and 18 physical therapy evaluation rooms (including chiropractic and acupuncture). It also has a fully-functioning drive-thru pharmacy with 2-lanes, laboratory, physical therapy gym, and wellness classrooms. Radiology services, including x-ray, ultrasound, CT, and bone density tests, are also available at Culinary Health Center – Craig for added convenience to primary care patients. There are no copays for services at Culinary Health Centers, except for dental care. https://www.culinaryunion226.org/news/press/culinary-union-celebrates-the-official-grand-opening-of-culinary-health-center-craig-in-north-las-vegas
