If
you are sick or injured and need medical attention you have options
where to seek care. You can make an appointment with your primary
care doctor or if you have an emergency outside of normal business
hours, your primary care doctor likely would not be available. After
hours options would include a hospital emergency room, or an urgent
care facility such as Urgi-Med Urgent Care in Randolph. There are
some distinct advantages to using urgent care compared with other
health care options.
Convenience
One
of the biggest benefits of seeking care at Urgi-Med Urgent Care in
Randolph is its convenience. The office is open 365 days a year,
including weekends and holidays when most primary care doctor’s
offices are closed. Urgi-Med Urgent Care in Randolph is also open
longer hours than a traditional primary care practice. The office is
open during the week until 8pm and all day Saturday and Sunday to
serve patients. For most services patients do not need to have an
appointment and can walk in and be seen fairly quickly. All of these
things make a visit to Urgi-Med Urgent Care more convenient than
other options.
Same
Services
Urgent
care centers offer most of the same services that you would find at
your regular doctor and they treat most of the same conditions.
Urgent care centers can treat you for things like colds, sore
throats, the flu and a number of injuries. You also can receive
preventative care at an urgent care center.
Less
Expensive
Perhaps
the biggest benefit of visiting an urgent care center is the cost. A
visit at an Urgent care is much less expensive than an emergency room
visit and, depending on insurance, may actually be the same cost as a
regular doctor’s appointment.
