Urgent Care Clinic
Any patient who has an urgent need to see a physician, or is unable to get an appointment with his or her own physician can come to the clinic without an appointment. The wait time can range from 30 minutes to two hours.
Walk-Ins
Patients with allergies who need regular injections or desensitization and patients requiring Flu vaccine in the fall can present to the clinic at any time for their shots. They should remember, however, that because they must wait twenty minutes after their injection (in case of a reaction), they need to register at least 30 minutes prior to the clinic's closing time. Patients coming in for pregnancy testing or TB screening must also register 30 minutes prior to closing time.
