  addMarkers(lat = ~latitude, 
             lng = ~longitude, 
             popup = paste("Health Center name:", health_center$health_center, "<br>", "Street address:", health_center$street_address, "<br>", "Telephone number:", health_center$telephone_number, "<br>", "Borough:", health_center$borough),

  dplyr::select(health_center, street_address, telephone_number, days_of_operation, hours_of_operation, accept_walk_ins) %>% 
  mutate(
    accept_walk_ins = c(rep("Yes",11))
  ) %>% 
  relocate(
    health_center, days_of_operation, hours_of_operation, accept_walk_ins,
    street_address, telephone_number
