are some answers to Frequently Asked Questions:
Question:
What is "Urgent Care"?
Answer:
Urgent
Care is medical care for the treatment of conditions that
require urgent attention, but are not life threatening.
At
our facility, we provide treatment for acute illnesses and
injuries as well as physicals and occupational medicine. We
recommend that you maintain a relationship with a primary
care physician for long term medical care.
If
you have a life threatening emergency such as chest pain,
major trauma or possible stroke, you should not visit our
clinic but rather go to the nearest emergency room for evaluation
and treatment.
