AFC Urgent Care and Walk-In Clinics Near San Diego, CA - 6 Locations Near You
The terms “walk-in clinic†and “urgent care†generally refer to the same kind of healthcare center. You can walk into any urgent care clinic and receive immediate healthcare for any minor health matter. For instance, you can go to urgent care for a minor case of the flu or a simple sports injury. You can also go there for prescriptions, physical exams, and immunizations. An appointment is never necessary with urgent care, anyone of any age can be treated there, and any form of basic healthcare can be provided.
You can go see your primary care doctor for any minor and non-urgent health matter, like a prescription refill. You can see an urgent care doctor for any minor but urgent health matter, like a non-life-threatening case of a fever. And you can see an emergency care doctor at the ER (emergency room) for any life-threatening emergency, like a case of a fever in a newborn. Since primary care, urgent care, and emergency care all have different uses, one isn't better than the other. However, sometimes it's necessary or better to go to one over another.
You must go to the ER for any emergency, as only the ER can handle life-threatening matters. However, you shouldn't go to the ER for a non-life-threatening situation, as you'll have to wait until patients with life-threatening situations are treated first. For non-life-threatening situations, it's better to go to urgent care, as they'll be able to see you right away with no wait time.
You should go to urgent care for any non-life-threatening but urgent health matter like:
