ER vs. urgent care?
Figuring out whether you or a loved one needs either emergency care or urgent care may not be easy, especially if symptoms appear serious. We can help.
Urgent care services
Urgent care centers typically provide treatment for routine sicknesses and injuries, such as flu symptoms and ankle sprains. Most urgent care clinics, however, are not able to treat more serious conditions, such as heart attack, broken bones or stroke, and may not offer necessary imaging and the advanced support services of a hospital.
If you are unsure if you need to go to the ER, review our helpful guide on when to go to an ER or urgent care.
