Minute Clinic or Urgent Care? Why is AFC Somerset the Better Choice.

Complete Urgent Care at AFC Somerset vs. Limited Minute Clinic Options

Your care should cover more than the bare minimum. Unlike Minute Clinics, AFC Somerset provides comprehensive, same-day medical services to keep you healthy and cared for. Our urgent care center offers a full range of medical services, from treating minor injuries to conducting complex diagnostics, all without the need for an appointment.

When to Choose AFC Somerset Over a Minute Clinic.

  1. More Services, Fewer Limitations

    Minute Clinics have limited offerings, typically focusing on basic care like vaccinations and routine check-ups. At AFC Somerset, we provide a broad range of services, including but not limited to:

    • X-Ray and Diagnostic Imaging: On-site diagnostics to quickly identify fractures, infections, and other conditions.
    • Comprehensive care for sprains, strains, broken bones, and other non-life-threatening injuries.
    • On-Site Lab Testing: Immediate access to lab services for quick test results, including blood work and STI testing.
    • Physicals: Sports, school, DOT, and employment physicals without the wait.
    • Occupational Health Services: From drug testing to workers' compensation care.
    • Convenience: Patients can check-in online, call ahead, or simply walk-in 7 days a week.

  2. Expert Care from Licensed Physicians

    At AFC Somerset, you’ll be seen by licensed physicians and experienced medical staff who are equipped to handle more complex medical issues. This level of care is typically not available at Minute Clinics, where you might only have access to nurse practitioners or physician assistants.

  3. Shorter Wait Times

    While emergency rooms can be overwhelming with long wait times, and Minute Clinics may not always be available when you need them, AFC Somerset offers the perfect balance. Our urgent care center is designed to get you in and out quickly, often with wait times of less than 15 or 20 minutes.

  4. No Appointment Necessary

    Unlike many Minute Clinics that require an appointment, AFC Somerset is fully equipped to handle walk-in patients. Whether it’s a sudden injury or a lingering illness, you can walk into our clinic at any time during business hours and receive immediate care.
