Stop Work order issued at GW Primary Care at Bethesda Row, as clinic begins seeing patients at secondary office


Montgomery County's Department of Permitting Services has issued a Stop Work order for the GW Primary Care clinic at 7137 Arlington Road at Bethesda Row. That is the main clinic facility. But GW Primary Care has apparently quietly begun accepting patients at the secondary, 2nd floor office around the corner at 4920 Elm Street, Suite 225. That office is ultimately meant to be the location for the clinic's specialty care services, but is currently being described as a "temporary location" for primary care services.


According to the posted order, construction work at the main facility on Arlington Road is now in violation of Montgomery County Code Chapter 8 - Section 26 (c), which states: "(c) Compliance with permit. All work must conform to the approved application and plans for which the permit has been issued and any approved amendments to the permit." The notice does not indicate the specific non-conforming work that was observed being performed by the inspector.

GW is way above all that pesky detail. Ask anyone near their other facilities.
