Urgent Care
 
What is Urgent Care
In short, Urgent Care combines the best of both worlds, Family Doctor Office and Emergency Room. But, unlike your Family doctor office, we will receive you any time, without an appointment and with extended hours, and Unlike an Emergency room, we do not charge high fees and your co-pay, if required, is significantly less.

Why is it needed?
In addition to Treatment of common illnesses, patients still require care for surprising, but non-life threatening conditions such as colds, flu, sore throats, fever, diarrhea, upper respiratory symptoms, and earaches, minor burns, allergic reactions, Arthritis/Gout, Fracture care, Foreign Body Removal, Laceration repair, Minor eye injuries, Sprains, strains and similar conditions.

Normally, these treatments will have to wait until your family doctor can see you, or you can head to the Emergency Room for expensive co-pay and possibly longer waits than necessary.   With our commitment and new care concept, you just walk in to one of our clinics and you see a doctor to immediately address your symptoms.  You will get an answer right there and then on whether you need more care, e.g. see a specialist, get admitted to the hospital, or just take a prescription and rest.  You can always go back and see your doctor, just to update him on your new medication or for a follow up visit.

With this concept, your medical conditions will not need to fester until your Doctor is open nor do you need to shell out expensive co-pay at the emergency room, or wait while others with life threatening illnesses are treated.

When should I Use Urgent Care:
When your Doctor office is closed, or when the available appointment is not immediate or not convenient is definitely a time when you should come to us.  We are open late and weekends and you do not need an appointment to see a doctor.  Additionally, Urgent Care Centers like ours are equipped with X-Rays, Lab work and other state of the art equipment that your Doctor office does not have, so most of your treatment needs are under one roof.
