Why Rely on an AFC Urgent Care Center?

When a health issue is non-life-threatening but still requires timely or urgent care (think broken bones or strep throat), it makes sense to seek out your local AFC Urgent Care center, like the one in Agoura Hills. This is because urgent care can handle these situations easily and quickly, without you having to make an appointment and wait for care. You can seek out urgent care for any minor or non-life-threatening health situation or any related services like:

• Employee/employer services such as drug testing or worker’s comp services
• Immigration services
• Lab work like testing for STDs
• X-rays
• Annual, sports, or school physical exams
• General pain or chronic pain
• Common injuries like minor strains or minor cuts
• Seasonal allergies or flu
• Asthma
• Immunizations
• Pediatric, adult, and geriatric services
• And more

It’s certainly possible to get many of these services from your primary care doctor, but not without having to make an appointment first. You’ll also likely have to wait at your local emergency room (ER) if you’re a patient suffering from anything non-life-threatening. In situations like these, your AFC Agoura Hills urgent care center is the answer!

Urgent Care vs. the ER

Urgent care is for annual procedures like physicals, for required diagnostics like blood tests or X-rays, or for non-life-threatening accidents or illnesses, like sprains and broken bones, cuts, allergic reactions, flu and cold, and more. Emergency rooms are for just that — emergencies that either have the possibility of being life-threatening or are so. An urgent care center doesn’t have the personnel or equipment to provide life-saving services, but an ER does.

Can Urgent Care Refer You to a Specialist?

Yes, absolutely! Urgent care doctors can provide referrals to, and network with, other healthcare professionals, including specialists of just about any kind. In doing so, an urgent care doctor can be at the center of a network between you and many other healthcare providers and even serve as a primary care doctor!

If urgent care sounds like the kind of care you want for yourself and the rest of your family, we want to hear from you. Contact us today or visit your AFC Agoura Hills urgent care center in person. We look forward to meeting your healthcare needs!
