Urgent care vs. emergency room
It's important to understand the distinction between urgent care and emergency room services:
Urgent care is ideal for non-life-threatening conditions. Our urgent care center provides timely care without the long waits typically associated with emergency rooms.
Emergency rooms are reserved for severe or life-threatening emergencies, including chest pain, severe injuries, difficulty breathing and major trauma.
*Urgent care is appropriate for illness or injuries that require prompt attention but are not medical emergencies.
If you or someone you care for is having a medical or mental health emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest hospital.
