Roper St. Francis officials announced Tuesday that the hospital system will open five new locations in buildings formerly owned by Nason Medical Center.

The locations are in James Island, Mount Pleasant, North Charleston and Summerville bringing 100 new jobs by the end of next year.

Officials said three of the buildings will be Express Care locations and plans are still in the works for the other two.

The first Express Care will open in August at 5133 Ladson Road in Summerville with the second slated for the end of the year at 8901 University Boulevard in North Charleston. The third Express location at 319 Folly Road on James Island is scheduled for early 2017.

"One of the most important services we provide is easy, affordable access to family care physicians," said David Dunlap, president and chief executive officer of Roper St. Francis. "Residents who live or work near one of our Express Cares can walk in without an appointment and be seen quickly by a certified, experienced physician for less cost than at an area urgent care center."

Officials said patients can access Roper St. Francis Express Cares in the evenings and on weekends for the same co-pay as visiting a primary care physician.

The following is a list of the five properties Roper St. Francis will lease:

Mount Pleasant

1101 Bowman Road, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464

North Charleston

8901 University Boulevard, North Charleston, SC 29406

5133 Rivers Avenue, North Charleston, SC 29406

James Island

319 Folly Road, James Island, SC 29412

Summerville

4278 Ladson Road, Summerville, SC 29485
