Athens Urgent Care
Urgent care serves as an alternative to the emergency room for a variety of ailments and injuries. Our
Athens urgent care
center has extended hours, and is open on the weekend, Mon - Sat 8am -
8pm | Sun 10am - 6pm, so that we can treat as many people as possible.
Urgent care is, more often than not, comprised of walk-in patients who
need immediate care, but don't feel as though there condition is serious
enough for the emergency room.
Urgent care centers began to open in the 1970's and have grown rapidly
to meet the increasing need for them. There is a great public need for
unscheduled medical care, which is exactly what
Athens urgent care
center provides for its patients. One of the main reasons urgent care
centers have grown is that they are more affordable than emergency
rooms.
Emergency rooms are built for those that are truly suffering from a
life-threatening injury or sickness. Short of life-threatening, there
are a number of illnesses that people need to treat quickly, but that
don't require an ambulance. Chest pains can be a good example of an
instance where an urgent care facility is ideal. If the pains aren't bad
enough to warrant a visit to the emergency room, but need to be dealt
with now, urgent care may be the right choice for you.
