Urgent Care Center

What an Urgent Care Center Is For

Urgent care centers handle non-life-threatening medical issues that can't wait for a regular doctor's appointment.

You might need urgent care for:

• Cuts that may need stitches

• Minor fractures or sprains

• Ear infections or severe sore throats

• Fever without emergency symptoms

• Mild allergic reactions

When an Urgent Care Center Might Not Be Necessary

Many health issues can be treated at home or by a primary care doctor, saving you time and money:

• Mild colds or coughs

• Low-grade fevers that respond to medication

• Minor rashes without swelling or pain

• Mild stomach upset

• Sore muscles after exercise
