Urgent Care

What is the difference between urgent and emergency care?

Urgent care and emergency care serve different purposes based on the severity of the medical issue. Urgent care is ideal for non-life-threatening conditions that require prompt attention. These may include minor injuries, illnesses, or conditions like sprains or minor cuts that need immediate attention. On the other hand, emergency care is necessary for life-threatening situations or severe medical issues that require immediate medical attention, such as severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, or sudden loss of consciousness. 

When should I visit an urgent care clinic?

You should visit an urgent care facility when you have a non-life-threatening medical concern that requires prompt attention but does not need a trip to the emergency room. Our walk-in urgent care is ideal for treating minor injuries as well as common illnesses such as colds, flu, and infections.

What should I say when I go to an urgent care clinic?

When you arrive at our urgent care clinic, our friendly staff will greet you and ask about your reason for visiting. You can simply explain your symptoms or medical concerns to our team, who will then guide you through the check-in process. Our goal is to ensure that you receive prompt care. So, feel free to communicate any specific needs or concerns you may have. 

What insurance do you accept? What will my plan cover?

At our walk-in clinic, we accept most major insurances. Our team verifies your eligibility and benefits when you arrive at our clinics with your insurance card. This ensures transparency and allows us to provide you with accurate information about what your plan covers.

Do you offer a discount rate for patients without insurance?

Yes, we understand that not everyone has insurance coverage, which is why we offer self-pay discounted pricing for patients without insurance. During your visit, you will receive transparent and affordable pricing options. For our uninsured or out-of-network patients, we offer a self-pay discounted visit charge. This fee covers the initial assessment by our medical professionals. If additional services such as diagnostic testing, procedures, or other medical services are required during your visit, they will have an extra cost. 

What are your walk-in clinic’s hours of operation? 

Our walk-in urgent care clinics are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day of the week. We make every effort to staff our clinics appropriately to keep wait times to a minimum. While walk-ins are always welcome, the best way to avoid longer wait times is to utilize our Save My Spot system and fill out forms electronically for an expedited check-in upon arrival at the nearest clinic.
