Lab testing is something that’s necessary to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and prioritizing your well-being. As important as it is, it’s often something that people put off or avoid until the absolute last minute. Lab work tends to be expensive, time-consuming, and overall not a positive experience. Finally, there’s an alternative option!
Convenience
Urgent care centers are great for lab work because convenience. Instead of going out of your way to get to a location for blood work or testing, you can simply on your way to or from work and get your lab work done! AFC Urgent Care Hillsdale is conveniently located on Broadway, near the Westwood Plaza. Urgent care centers also offer convenient hours of operation to fit any schedule. Our center opens early and stays open later than other clinics or primary care offices, so you won’t have to miss any work or school to get the medical care you need.
Affordability
Urgent care centers are revolutionizing healthcare by providing the same care as a hospital or lab at a fraction of the cost. With most major insurance companies accepted, the cost becomes even lower. Many urgent care centers are even able to accept medical credit cards if you can’t pay the cost upfront.
A Comfortable Environment
Hospitals and lab settings tend to be very uncomfortable with long wait times. Urgent care centers treat people on a first come first serve basis which means even if you’re just there for lab work, you won’t be left sitting in the waiting room for long. Urgent care centers are also a little more informal, providing a comfortable place if you do have to wait for any period of time.
Quick Results
Urgent care centers are able to provide same-day lab work results for many tests because lab testing is done on-site. With a traditional lab or doctor’s office, it can take 2-3 days to get results for your lab work. That means 2-3 days of wondering what the results are and going without treatment if it turns out treatment is needed. Urgent care centers streamline that process which helps put your mind at ease and get you started on the treatment you need as quickly as possible.
