Seasonal illness treatment ,COVID-19 Testing, and medical attention
COVID-19 testing is available at most urgent care centers for patients as demand for testing continues to increase. However, patients may also visit urgent care to evaluate other non-COVID-19 symptoms and get the appropriate treatment for their needs. Onsite lab testing allows our providers to diagnose seasonal illnesses including colds, influenza, and other infection, who can then begin treatment for seasonal illnesses.
An urgent care center also offers medical attention for sudden injuries and can even provide x-rays for patients. At AFC Urgent Care Southcenter, our providers maintain CDC-recommended infection control procedures to ensure that all patients can get tested and treated for any illness concerns as they arise.
