If you’ve ever grabbed a cold treat from The Yard Milkshake Bar or cooled off with a frozen lemonade on a hot Sevierville afternoon, you know the value of fast, refreshing relief when you need it most. The same goes for urgent medical care. When a health issue pops up, you want to get help quickly without jumping through hoops. That’s exactly what you can expect at AFC Urgent Care Sevierville.
Whether it is your first time visiting or you have been here before, it is completely normal to have questions. To help make your visit easier, we’ve answered seven of the most frequently asked questions patients have about our clinic and services.
1. How Long Will I Have to Wait?
One of the biggest concerns people have about walk-in clinics is the wait time. At AFC Sevierville, we understand your time is valuable. While the exact wait time depends on how many patients are ahead of you, most are seen within 15 to 30 minutes. Even on busy days, our wait times are typically much shorter than those at an emergency room.
We’re designed for efficiency. From check-in to diagnosis and treatment, our team works to keep your visit smooth and timely so you can get back to your day with peace of mind.
2. Can I Bring My Kids to AFC?
Yes. We treat patients as young as six months old. Our clinic is equipped to care for children with everything from seasonal illnesses to minor injuries. Whether it is a sore throat, a fever, or a sports injury, our providers are experienced in pediatric care and ready to help.
Families appreciate the convenience of receiving care for both children and adults in one place. No need to schedule multiple appointments or drive across town for different age groups.
3. What If I Got Hurt at Work?
We provide care for many types of work-related injuries and offer occupational health services to support employees and employers alike. This includes evaluations for sprains, minor burns, cuts, and more. We also conduct DOT physicals and drug testing.
If your visit is related to a workplace injury, we can help guide you through the documentation process and support your recovery so you can return to work safely and confidently.
4. Do I Need an Appointment to Be Seen?
Not at all. AFC Sevierville is a walk-in clinic, which means you can come in during our business hours without an appointment. However, for those who want to speed things up a bit, we offer online check-in. This optional step lets you fill out your paperwork ahead of time and helps us prepare for your arrival.
Walk-in access with extended hours means you can get care when it works best for your schedule, whether it’s early morning or after school, or work.
5. Will I Be Able to Get Medication or a Prescription?
Yes. After evaluating your symptoms, our providers can write prescriptions for medications if needed. While we don’t fill prescriptions on-site, we are located near several pharmacies where you can easily pick up your medication.
You’ll also receive clear instructions on how and when to take your medication, and our team will follow up to make sure your recovery is on track.
6. Is My Insurance Accepted at AFC Sevierville?
We work with a wide range of insurance plans to help keep your visit affordable. If you’re unsure whether your specific plan is accepted, you can check our website or give us a call. Our front desk staff is happy to help answer questions about coverage and costs.
For added convenience, we also offer online bill payment to make the process as smooth as possible.
7. Do You Offer Preventive Care Services?
While AFC Sevierville focuses primarily on urgent care and immediate health needs, we also provide a variety of preventive services. These include school and sports physicals, DOT physicals, and a wide range of vaccinations for both children and adults.
Some of the most common vaccines we offer include flu shots, tetanus boosters, and hepatitis vaccines. We don’t offer annual wellness exams, but we do offer tools and services that help you and your family stay healthy year-round.
