Top Rated Urgent Care Doctor in Clio MI

Clio Urgent Care offers walk-in appointments to provide as much convenience as possible for any stressful, urgent medical situations. We understand that urgent medical care is never as planned, so we offer extended hours from Monday to Friday to ensure that you are able to seek the medical care you need and are open on the weekends and holidays, allowing for urgent medical care to be accessed every single day. We are able to accommodate all walk-in patients without calling ahead is necessary, and our website offers the option to be added to a queue, putting your name on a waitlist so that you can see how long the wait will likely be and spend that waiting period from the comfort of your own home rather than in a waiting room.

Urgent care can mean that a wide variety of health conditions come through our doors every single day, meaning we have to be able to adapt and have expertise in many different areas to ensure that all of our patients receive the best possible care. With this in mind, we offer both general medical care as well as pediatric care. For your convenience as well, we have on-site lab services, allowing us to perform medical tests such as STD testing, COVID testing, and concussion testing without having to send you elsewhere to receive those tests. Within our general medical care services, we are able to perform physical examinations, provide immunizations, and offer x-ray services for anyone who may need them. Additionally, we provide DOT (Department of Transportation) physical examinations to ensure your health and safety, as well as the safety of others on the road.

To make sure that you are prepared for your urgent care, there are a few tips or recommendations that will make checking in at the clinic as easy as possible. You will need to show your identification, either a driver’s license or picture identification, your insurance card if you have one, and a method of payment, so make sure to bring those. If you are currently on any medications, it is good to be able to let the healthcare professional who treats you know which medications you are taking and for how long you have been taking them. You will most likely need to fill out a form informing them of any other pertinent information, such as pre-existing medical conditions, the name of your family doctor if you have one, your name and address, and a consent form. Knowing all of this information ahead of time and having it ready to go when you check in will help to reduce wait times for you and other patients.

It can sometimes be tricky to figure out whether your medical situation is better suited for a trip to the emergency room or can be treated at an urgent care clinic. Essentially, the difference between urgent and emergent care is that if the medical situation is life- or limb-threatening and may require emergency surgery, it is much safer to just go straight to the emergency room. If you would require medical services sometime in the next 24 hours but know that your condition is not life-threatening if you wait a few hours, it is likely fine if you just go to an urgent care clinic. Emergency rooms provide medical care 24/7, so if you require medical attention outside of urgent care clinic hours and cannot wait until it is open again, going to the ER would be the right call. Urgent care is not emergency care and is intended for treating minor injuries or illnesses on the same day. It is considered to be more of a bridge between a primary care physician and the emergency room.
