Urgent Care Q&A
What is urgent care?
Urgent care is a type of medical care focused on addressing health needs that don’t rise to the level of true medical emergencies, yet require prompt attention. A good way to think about what falls under the umbrella of urgent care is to consider the intensity of symptoms.
For example, if you or your child has symptoms of a cold or flu and is so uncomfortable that it’s hard to focus on other matters, waiting to get in to see your regular physician might not yield the best results.
If you’re in pain after a fall or sports injury, waiting for the next available appointment can make it hard to move ahead with normal daily tasks without significant discomfort.
An urgent care visit could determine if a more serious illness is to blame for those symptoms and begin a path to relief within hours, not days.
