What happens during urgent care appointments?

A provider checks your blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and other vital signs during an urgent care appointment. They also ask about your medical history, symptoms, lifestyle, and medications.

During a physical exam, your specialist may evaluate your eyes, ears, breathing, throat, heartbeat, and injured or painful areas. 

They may suggest diagnostic testing, such as lab or imaging procedures, to diagnose your condition and establish the best treatment. You may need medications, wound care, or other treatments to heal from an injury, better manage a disease, or recover quickly from an illness.
