A medical office in Henrietta is temporarily closed after a fire at the location.
Fire at medical facility
Emergency responders were sent to the medical facility on Red Creek Drive around 8:30 a.m. Saturday, May 30, when multiple smoke detectors and a water flow alarm were activated, according to the Henrietta Fire District.
Firefighters arrived at the scene to find that the two-story building was being evacuated and smoke was visible within the building. Firefighters quickly located a fire on the first floor of the building that was “being held in check” by the building’s automatic sprinkler system, firefighters said.
No injuries were reported.
“This incident serves as another reminder of the critical role automatic sprinkler systems play in protecting lives and property,” Henrietta Fire District officials said in a news release.
Further details of the fire were not released.
Office is temporarily closed
According to the office’s website, Red Creek Cardiology, 600 Red Creek Drive, is temporarily closed. The cardiology practice is part Highland Hospital and the University of Rochester.
Appointments are being rescheduled to other locations. Anyone with an appointment who was not already contacted is asked to call (585) 341-6780.
Red Creek Drive is located south of Calkins Road in Henrietta, just east of Interstate 390 and Middle Road.
