Why Should You Choose a Walk-in Clinic Over an Emergency Room?

The walk-in clinic attends the mild to moderate cases and gives the same medical assistance as the emergency rooms. The emergency rooms are primarily for life-threatening situations and trauma cases. However, if you require immediate assistance, you must go ahead with the walk-in clinic. Your medical problem will be catered to immediately. These urgent care rooms will treat a variety of situations. So you do not have to see your local emergency rooms.

Top Reasons to Choose a Walk-In Clinic Over ER

  1. Less Time: The walk-in clinic will take less time to address your medical problem. It will take almost 60 minutes to attend to your problem. If the complication is moderate, you will get professional advice within a few minutes. The patient can take the medicine for their health issues. They do not have to stay for hours together, as in the case of emergency rooms.
  2. Affordable Treatment: A walk-in clinic is the best option if you look forward to affordable and less expensive medical treatment. The ER charges more, and you can get into more significant debt if you do not have insurance. You do not require insurance to pay for the medical treatment in the walk-in clinic.
  3. Get Easy Referrals: You can get simple referrals after the doctor checks you at the walk-in clinic. It will help you get an easy diagnosis, and you can schedule your appointment with the diagnostic or testing center to check out what has happened to you.
  4. Access to All Kinds of Treatments: You can get all treatments under one roof. There is no need to wait for the ER rooms to open. These urgent care clinics have the equipment to check what has happened to you and what medications you require to get alright.
  5. Get Primary Care Provider Easily: Patients can get primary care providers easily and fast. There will be a transition of care if an emergency arises. Moreover, the primary care providers will monitor your total health concerns. Even you will receive high-quality care at these primary caregiver centers.

Testimonials

On a Sunday, I was able to book an appointment online for 12:00 noon the next day. I arrived 10 minutes early and found that the clinic is extremely efficient and beautiful inside. I walked out at 12:22 with having talked to a receptionist, nurse, got x-rays done and talked to a doctor. If I had gone to a hospital emergency room, the wait would have been 5 hours or more. At the clinic, I was and out in just over 30 minutes. I highly recommend this clinic for it’s efficiency and level of care.

My son had acute onset of face and head pain. The clinic booked us in, in less than 24hrs…..for context we couldn’t see his pediatrician until October.
When we arrived at the clinic the check in process was fast an efficient! We maybe waited 10 minutes then we were called to a room and seen by Dr. Gerald who was AMAZING. He was thorough and explained everything in terms we could understand. He did not force medication or uneeded services and explained what to do if things worsened. I wish he was our pediatrician!
We will definitely be using this clinic in the future.

I booked an appointment at noon. My information was taken and covid screening took place as soon as I walked in. I barely sat down before being brought to an examination room where I was promptly asked questions by a nurse. I was sent for an X-ray just across the hall (X-ray techs were out for lunch until 12:30, but promptly brought me in upon return. Quick and efficient X-ray process, then back to the clinic, where I was immediately directed to an examination room. I just waited a few moments before a doctor came in, asked a few questions, examined/tested my knee, gave me my X-ray results and shared my prognosis. Even with the short wait for the X-ray, I was in and out before my lunch hour was finished. Everyone in the process was friendly, helpful, professional, thorough and efficient. Very clean space. Recommended.

Oly Backstrom

Booked an appointment for my 7 year old. We got in quickly, and the nurse and doctor were both wonderful at making her feel comfortable. The receptionist was friendly and the office was big and very very clean. The online booking was easy to use, and the option to book a same day or next day appointment was wonderful. We will absolutely return to this clinic for our needs in the future.

Booked my appointment one day in advance, waited 10 minutes and then saw the doctor. Friendly staff/doctor and the place was nice inside and clean. Only had to wait a couple of days to hear back from the doctor from the lab results. Overall good first experience.

Seth

Dr. Kahani was fantastic with my son! Great bedside manner, very kind and gentle with him. Diagnosed his croup, prescribed the medication and gave me some very helpful hints to manage symptoms at home.

Miranda Turabian

First time there. Appt made 24 hrs ahead. I showed up 5 mins early for 4:15 appt. Waiting room empty. Three staff manning desk. Barely sat down when I was called in to triage. Explained my injury, X-Ray requisition printed, over to X-Ray across the hall, 3 mins there, back to office. Doc shows up 30 secs later, to examine, checks x-rays, diagnosis, prognosis and instructions, and on my way.
In and out in 14 minutes. Everyone was friendly, professional and efficient. Pretty remarkable, I’d say.

Kelly Parker

Took my child in and we saw Dr. Kabani, he is absolutely amazing with children and even took the time to engage with my other child who did not have an appointment. Both kids left with the biggest smiles . I wish we could have him as our regular pediatrician.

Amanda Todaro

This clinic is great having amazong doctors and X-ray right the next door. Dr. Katz did a great job consulting me this morning, provided recommendations and prescribtion for the wrist brace which helps a lot.

Oleg Yadroshnikov

I recently took my 15 year old daughter to the Minor Illness and Injury clinic because she injured her thumb. I was immediately impressed when we able to get an appointment for her the same day. The nurse that saw her was incredibly kind and seemed to ask all the right questions. My daughter was directed down the hall for an x-ray right away. She then came back and was seen by Dr. Kabani. He was amazing. Best bedside manner I have seen when dealing with a child. He was thorough and honest. From beginning to end we were there for 60 minutes. I would highly recommend the clinic for any minor injury. Beats waiting at the Children’s hospital for hours on end just to sit in a room waiting for another hour and then being rushed out without any real answers.
