Immediate
Care

5 Convenient Locations.

Our Immediate Care Centers provide convenient medical care for patients of all ages who need to see a doctor right away but do not have a life-threatening condition that warrants an emergency room visit.

Our Immediate Care Centers are fully prepared and ready to safely welcome you back, following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and public health authorities, using the best practices for hygiene, infection control and social distancing. Don’t wait to be well.

Call 911 if you think you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency.
