Urgent care addresses medical problems that require immediate attention. Unlike a routine primary care visit, urgent care provides prompt medical services without an appointment, often during extended hours and on weekends.
This convenience allows you to seek timely treatment for non-life-threatening conditions, like minor injuries, infections, and illnesses, bridging the gap between primary care and emergency room services.
Internal Medicine Partners proudly offers same-day urgent care for patients who need responsive medical attention.
Internal Medicine Partners provides same-day urgent care for many illnesses, injuries, and other health concerns, including:
With onsite diagnostic testing services, such as blood work, urinalysis, and imaging scans, the team can diagnose and treat many conditions in-house.
Knowing when you need emergency care is critical for your health and safety. Warning signs you should go to the emergency room instead of seeking urgent care include:
An emergency room visit is also necessary if you experience suicidal thoughts or a severe mental health crisis.
Make sure to bring a valid form of identification, like a driver’s license or passport, and your most updated insurance information to ensure a smooth visit. The Internal Medicine Partners staff may ask you to fill out documents, such as health questionnaires, to gather as much information as possible.
The team checks your height, weight, and vital signs before reviewing your medical history and conducting a physical exam. Your doctor may order diagnostic testing, such as blood work or imaging scans, to investigate your symptoms. If possible, they may issue treatment at your appointment.
