What Is Urgent Care?

Urgent care is designed for illnesses and injuries that need prompt medical attention but do not appear to be life-threatening. It helps bridge the gap between a routine primary care appointment and a hospital emergency department. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention describes urgent care centers as outpatient facilities that provide an alternative setting for acute illnesses, injuries, and selected preventive services.

Learn more from CDC information about urgent care centers.

Urgent care may be appropriate when you need evaluation today, but your symptoms are stable enough that emergency hospital services are not required. A provider will determine the appropriate evaluation and treatment after reviewing your symptoms and medical history.

Urgent Care for Children and Families

For more detailed information, visit our pediatric urgent care page.

Young infants, severely ill children, and children with breathing difficulty, dehydration, altered behavior, seizures, major injuries, or other emergency warning signs may require immediate hospital evaluation.

On-Site Testing and Diagnostic Services

A diagnosis often depends on more than symptoms alone. When clinically appropriate and available, EZMED may perform selected testing during the same visit. On-site services may help providers make faster treatment decisions and reduce the need for an additional appointment.

• Selected rapid infectious-disease testing
• Urine testing
• Blood testing
• EKG services
• Other point-of-care testing based on availability and medical need

Read more about available on-site laboratory testing.

Testing is based on the provider’s clinical judgment. Not every test is appropriate for every patient, and some specimens or studies may need to be completed by an outside laboratory or imaging facility.

What to Expect During Your Urgent Care Visit

Our goal is to make your visit clear, efficient, and comfortable. The exact steps depend on your symptoms, but a typical visit may include:

1. Check-in and registration: Bring photo identification, insurance information, a medication list, and your preferred pharmacy details.
2. Initial assessment: A clinical team member reviews your symptoms and checks relevant vital signs.
3. Provider evaluation: Your provider discusses your history and performs a focused physical examination.
4. Testing when appropriate: The provider may recommend laboratory testing, an EKG, imaging, or another diagnostic service.
5. Personalized treatment plan: You receive instructions about treatment, medications when appropriate, warning signs, and follow-up care.
6. Next-step coordination: If you need emergency, specialty, or primary care, our team explains where to go next.

5. Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an appointment for urgent care?

No appointment is generally required for walk-in urgent care during business hours. Patients may also schedule online to reserve an available time. Wait times and appointment availability vary based on patient volume and medical urgency.

What conditions can urgent care treat?

Urgent care commonly evaluates non-life-threatening illnesses and minor injuries such as cold and flu symptoms, sore throat, ear pain, urinary symptoms, rashes, pink eye, nausea, minor cuts, sprains, strains, and selected sports injuries. A provider determines whether urgent care is the appropriate setting after evaluating the patient.

Do you treat children?

EZMED provides care for many common pediatric illnesses and minor injuries. Parents should contact the office when they are unsure whether the child’s age or symptoms are appropriate for urgent care. Emergency warning signs require immediate hospital evaluation.

Can I walk in with a possible fracture?

Some possible minor fractures can be initially evaluated at urgent care. Open fractures, severe deformity, loss of circulation or sensation, major trauma, or uncontrolled pain may require emergency care.

Can urgent care perform laboratory testing?

EZMED offers selected on-site laboratory and point-of-care testing based on clinical need and availability. Some tests may need to be sent to an outside laboratory.

Can I get an antibiotic at urgent care?

A provider may prescribe an antibiotic when the examination and available testing indicate a bacterial infection for which antibiotics are medically appropriate. Antibiotics do not treat viral illnesses and are never guaranteed.

Can urgent care refill medication?

Selected short-term or clinically appropriate refill requests may be considered after evaluation. Controlled medications and long-term medication management may require primary care, specialist care, medical records, or an in-person follow-up.

Does urgent care provide work or school notes?

A provider may provide documentation when medically appropriate based on the visit and evaluation. A note cannot guarantee that an employer, school, or organization will accept specific restrictions or dates.

Can urgent care treat a urinary tract infection?

Many uncomplicated urinary symptoms can be evaluated at urgent care. Testing and treatment depend on symptoms, medical history, age, pregnancy status, fever, flank pain, recurrence, and other risk factors.

Can urgent care test for strep throat, flu, or COVID-19?

Selected rapid tests may be available when medically appropriate. Test availability and recommendations can change, so patients should call the office with questions.

Can urgent care treat dehydration?

Mild dehydration may sometimes be evaluated and treated at urgent care. Severe dehydration, confusion, fainting, inability to keep fluids down, or other concerning symptoms may require emergency care.

What should I bring to my visit?

Bring photo identification, insurance information, a medication and allergy list, relevant medical records, your preferred pharmacy information, and any required forms.

Does EZMED accept insurance?

EZMED accepts many major insurance plans, but coverage varies. Contact your insurer or the office to verify network status, copayments, deductibles, and coverage for specific services.

Are self-pay visits available?

Self-pay options may be available. Contact the office for current pricing and to ask whether laboratory, imaging, procedures, or medications involve additional charges.

What is the difference between urgent care and the emergency room?

Urgent care treats stable, non-life-threatening illnesses and minor injuries. Emergency departments are equipped for severe or life-threatening conditions such as chest pain, serious breathing difficulty, stroke symptoms, major trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, loss of consciousness, or other emergencies.

What is the difference between urgent care and primary care?

Urgent care focuses on medical problems that need prompt attention. Primary care provides preventive care, annual exams, chronic-condition management, routine medication follow-up, and long-term coordination of healthcare.

Can I use telehealth instead of coming to the clinic?

Some stable concerns may be appropriate for telehealth. If the provider needs a hands-on examination, laboratory testing, imaging, or a procedure, an in-person visit will be recommended.

Do you provide same-day visits?

Same-day walk-in and scheduled visits may be available. Availability varies, so patients may use online scheduling or call the office.

When should I call 911 instead of going to urgent care?

Call 911 for chest pain, severe breathing difficulty, stroke symptoms, unconsciousness, seizure, severe allergic reaction, uncontrolled bleeding, major trauma, or any rapidly worsening or life-threatening condition.
