Acute Office Visits
Not every medical situation requires an emergency room visit, but many do need prompt attention. That’s where our Acute Office Visits come in. These visits are tailored to address new or sudden health concerns that arise without warning and require evaluation by a healthcare professional, without the long wait times of urgent care or the ER.
Our clinic offers same-day or next-day appointments for acute issues, ensuring that you receive timely, compassionate care when you need it most.
What Is an Acute Office Visit?
An Acute Office Visit is a short-notice medical appointment that focuses on diagnosing and treating health problems that started recently and are typically of short duration. These visits are not meant for routine wellness checks or long-term chronic disease management instead, they are ideal for sudden symptoms or minor injuries that impact your well-being.
Conditions Commonly Seen in Acute Visits
We regularly treat a wide range of acute conditions, including but not limited to:
- Cold and flu symptoms (fever, cough, congestion, fatigue)
- Sore throat and strep throat
- Ear infections and ear pain
- Sinus infections or headaches
- Minor sprains, strains, and joint pain
- Nausea, vomiting, and mild abdominal pain
- Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Skin rashes, allergic reactions, or bug bites
- Eye infections or irritation (pink eye, styes)
- Mild asthma or breathing issues (non-severe cases)
What to Expect During Your Visit:
When you schedule an Acute Office Visit, you can expect a smooth, efficient, and caring process:
Symptom Review & Medical History: Our provider will begin by discussing your symptoms, when they started, and how they’ve progressed. A brief review of your medical history will also be conducted to guide the diagnosis.
Physical Examination: A focused physical exam will help us better understand the underlying cause of your symptoms.
Diagnostic Testing (If Needed): Depending on your condition, we may perform rapid tests such as:
- Rapid strep test
- Urinalysis
- COVID-19 or flu tests
- Blood sugar checks
- Blood pressure monitoring
- Pregnancy test
Diagnosis and Treatment Plan: After evaluating your condition, we will provide a diagnosis and personalized treatment plan. This may include lifestyle guidance, over-the-counter recommendations, or prescription medications.
