Scale Finance Closes Capital Raise for Carolina Urgent Care


Carolina Urgent Care is a highly innovative Urgent Care and Sports Medicine facility opening in Q1 of 2014  in Morrisville, NC headed up by Dr. Richard T. Ferro.  With the financial advisory support of Scale Finance, Carolina Urgent Care has closed a structured and customized debt facility to fund the opening and operations of the new facility. 

The debt facility is backed through the SBA 7A program and the SBA Express LOC.  Scale Finance Managing Director Gary Hayes provided CFO services to Carolina Urgent Care and helped manage the debt placement process end to end.

Gary Hayes commented “this is a perfect example of Scale Finance’s model at work – our Chief Financial Officers leverage the expertise of our Transaction Advisory group, and work hand in hand with entrepreneurs and growth companies to ensure we present a comprehensive and compelling case to our financial partners. This kind of carefully managed, robust process is the best way to ensure that the capital is sourced on time, and on the best terms the market will bear.”

Proceeds from the loan will be used to build out and support the operations of the new facility, providing the Triangle region of North Carolina with a unique blend of Sports Medicine expertise and outpatient urgent care services. 

Dr. Ferro is Board Certified in Sports Medicine and is a graduate of Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and Princeton University. Dr. Ferro also completed his residency at Robert Wood Johnson. Dr. Ferro has extensive experience in sports medicine and clinical urgent/emergency care.
