Urgent care clinics for the modern family

Urgent Care in Germantown, MD
Reasons to choose immediate care

Urgent care centers have become an important part of the health care system. There are very appropriate reasons for a patient to choose an urgent care walk in clinic over other sources of health care. Consider the following:
  • Ideally, it is important for everyone to have a primary care physician that completely understands his or her medical history and the uniqueness of his or her health condition.
  • Once you choose a new primary-care doctor, you need to schedule a new-patient visit.
  • Sometimes new patient visits are scheduled several weeks or months in the future.
  • In the meantime, if you develop an acute problem, you cannot wait several weeks, you need immediate care.
  • Even when your doctor can see you on the same day, your health issue may require more care than a doctor’s office can provide.
  • You can walk in to an urgent care facility and receive these services without waiting, and at a much more affordable price than at a hospital-based emergency department.
