What are the benefits of going to urgent care?
Whether you’re in pain or just not feeling your best, you deserve effective treatment as soon as possible. Thanks to the in-house lab services at Blue Star Urgent Care, clinicians can diagnose and treat you quickly without the need to schedule an appointment with your family physician.
Other advantages of going to Blue Star Urgent Care include avoiding the stress of waiting in a hospital emergency room. Urgent care is also more affordable than ER treatment.
When should I go to the emergency room instead of urgent care?
Call 911 if you’re experiencing a life-threatening emergency like major trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, poisoning, or serious chest pain and difficulty breathing.
For minor medical concerns, call Blue Star Urgent Care or walk-in without an appointment. If it turns out you need more extensive treatment than it can provide, the helpful staff facilitate your transfer to a hospital.
