Sometimes an illness or injury needs immediate care that cannot wait for an appointment. MedPro Urgent & Primary Care treats urgent medical conditions that are not life-threatening without an appointment. 

Urgent Care Q & A

What is urgent care?

Urgent care centers allow a patient to walk in and be seen by a healthcare professional, without an appointment, for non-life-threatening and urgent medical needs; though not life threatening, this medical need still requires care within 24 hours. Because situations requiring medical attention don’t always occur during business hours, most urgent care centers like MedPro Urgent & Primary Care, offer extended hours.

When should I visit urgent care versus the ER?

Knowing which option to choose when you are injured or experiencing a health issue isn’t always obvious. Emergency rooms treat severe, life-threatening conditions. Urgent care centers treat non-emergency medical conditions that need expedient action.

Visit an ER if you have any of the following symptoms:

• Signs of a heart attack, severe chest pain/pressure
• Sudden or unexplained loss of consciousness
• Signs of stroke
• Anaphylaxis
• Severe head injuries
• Sudden loss of vision
• Sudden shortness of breath
• Coughing or vomiting blood
• Sudden and severe abdominal pain
• Suicidal feelings
• Partial or total amputation of a limb
• Sudden severe headache
• Large open wound
• Severe bleeding
• Spinal injuries
• Vaginal bleeding with pregnancy
• Serious burns
• Alcohol or drug overdose
