Urgent Care Center in Port Orange, FL – We Are Here for You When You Need Us
As you probably know, illnesses and injuries can strike unexpectedly, leaving you in need of prompt medical care at a highly inconvenient time. Unless your situation is life-threatening, you would most likely turn to your primary care physician. But what would you do if their office were closed, or you could not get an appointment for several days?
Of course, a hospital ER is always available, but unless you are facing a true emergency, it is not the best choice. Why? The resources of any emergency room are limited, and an ER team must quickly identify the patients who need help right away and those who can wait. Patients in the former group will be seen first—and rightfully so. However, this means they will be seen before you, even if they arrive after you. This can lead to a long wait when you are not feeling well. Plus, health insurance copays for emergency care are much higher than those for urgent care.
In these situations, Halifax Health ExpressCare is the right choice. As a proud affiliate of Halifax Health, we bridge the gap between primary care and emergency care by offering a range of immediate medical services during extended hours—including evenings and weekends—at our walk-in urgent care center in Port Orange, Florida.
