Winter is a time when many people face more illness than they do the rest of the year. With the cold and flu going around, slippery sidewalks to fall on, and even potential cooking accidents during the holidays, medical care is sure to be needed at one point or another. If you’re wondering why you should seek medical care at a walk-in clinic instead of an emergency room, you’ve come to the right place!
Preventative Treatment
Urgent care centers are able to provide preventative treatment for viral infections, including the flu. If you haven’t gotten your flu shot yet, it isn’t too late! Visit your local urgent care center today and get vaccinated to help protect yourself and everyone around you. They can also perform a routine physical to help determine your current health status.
Symptom Management
If you’re sick or injured, an urgent care can help to manage your symptoms. We offer testing to get to the source of the problem and various treatment options to manage the symptoms that you’re having. If you have to flu, we can help to manage nausea, headache, cough, and more. Muscle strains, cuts, and other injuries can also be treated and pain can be managed.
Quick, Affordable Care
Winter is a busy time of year and patients often delay getting care because they don’t have the time to sit at an emergency room for hours. With an urgent care center, you get seen quickly after you arrive. We see people by to order of arrival, not by the severity of the case. That means that even if you’re just there for preventative care, you’ll get the treatment you need when you need it! We can also offer the care you need at a price that you can afford. Emergency rooms often charge two to three times the price of an urgent care center. Urgent care centers accept insurance too, to help lower costs even more.
Stop by your local urgent care center to address all of your winter health needs today! Even if you aren’t in need of care now, it’s always good to familiarize yourself with the urgent care centers in your area so you know where to go if you do need help.
