When to use urgent care vs doctor. - EricksonFerry - 03-27-2022
There are some differences between using an urgent care center and visiting a doctor. If you're unsure of which is better, consider these guidelines: In a medical emergency, you need to visit the emergency room or an ER. For non-life-threatening issues, you can visit an urgent care center instead. An urgent-care location often accepts walk-in patients. In such cases, you can be treated quickly and for much less cost.
In a situation where you're sure you don't have an emergency, it's best to see your primary-care physician. They'll know your medical history and what treatment to give you. And because they know your medical history, they'll be able to prescribe you the best treatment for your condition. While urgent care clinics are not a replacement for a primary-care physician, they can be a great option when you're not able to schedule an appointment with your primary care physician.
A medical emergency can arise anytime. An urgent-care facility provides 24-hour care and may refer you to an ER if needed. A primary-care physician can manage chronic conditions, but an urgent-care facility will treat lingering cold symptoms. In addition to regular doctor visits, urgent care facilities are open twelve hours a day. During a holiday, they may be closed, so you should make an appointment with your primary-care physician.
Some conditions are better handled at an urgent-care facility. A primary-care physician will likely prescribe you medications and refer you to a specialist. For instance, an urgent-care facility can perform mammograms, pap smears, and other procedures. If you're experiencing chest pain, you can visit an urgent-care center for an exam. While your primary-care physician will be more likely to prescribe you antibiotics and other prescriptions, an urgent-care facility will offer you a lower-cost alternative.
An urgent-care facility is a good resource in an emergency. It's important to follow up with your primary-care physician. This physician will be able to detect any changes in your health and will be able to help you manage any chronic conditions. Moreover, an urgent care facility will often be more affordable than a trip to the ER. When to Use Urgent Care Vs Doctor?
An urgent-care facility will be able to take care of your most common medical problems. While an urgent-care facility can be helpful for those who have an emergency after-hours, it's a good idea to follow up with a primary-care physician in order to get the most comprehensive treatment. In addition, a primary-care physician has the advantage of being able to detect even minor changes in your health.
