What Is Urgent Care?

Urgent care centers like Columbus Urgent Care is the gap between the emergency room and your primary care physician. Basically, we’re a convenient, practical alternative to the ER for non-life-threatening issues.

Urgent care is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the health care industry. Patients with time-sensitive medical needs know that they’ll be given immediate, affordable medical attention when they walk into Columbus Urgent Care. It’s just that simple.

If you or a loved one experiences a life-threatening emergency, such as a heart attack or serious injury, you should still call an ambulance or visit the ER. However, if you have an illness or injury that does not appear life-threatening but that can’t wait until the next day, the Columbus Urgent Care team offers comprehensive same-day treatment.
