Walk-In Clinic in New Carrollton, MD

Walk-in care encompasses a range of services aimed at addressing acute medical needs that require prompt attention but are not life-threatening. These clinics provide evaluation and treatment for minor injuries like sprains, strains, cuts, burns, and fractures. They often have X-ray capabilities and offer services such as splinting, casting, sutures, and wound care for these injuries.

Managing common illnesses is another core service provided by walk-in care. This includes respiratory infections (such as colds, flu, bronchitis), urinary tract infections, ear infections, sinus infections, and other minor infections. Walk-in clinics can conduct diagnostic tests, prescribe antibiotics or other medications, and deliver appropriate medical care to alleviate symptoms and support the healing process.

Walk-in care also addresses mild to moderate allergic reactions, asthma exacerbations, minor rashes, mild gastrointestinal issues, and other non-life-threatening conditions. Some clinics may additionally offer vaccinations, perform physical exams for employment or sports participation, and conduct basic laboratory testing for conditions like strep throat, mononucleosis, or influenza. The comprehensive services provided by walk-in care centers are designed to meet immediate healthcare needs, ensuring patients receive timely and appropriate care for a wide range of non-emergency medical conditions.

Walk-in clinics and urgent care clinics share similarities, but they do have some distinctions. Urgent care or acute care clinics are a type of walk-in clinic specifically designed to provide after-hours ambulatory care. Patients are seen on a first-come, first-served basis, and same-day appointments may be available.

Urgent care clinics serve as valuable resources when conventional doctor’s offices are unavailable or fully scheduled, and they are particularly beneficial for urgent health concerns that do not necessitate an emergency room visit.

Urgent care clinics are typically equipped to handle more pressing injuries or illnesses that are not life-threatening. They offer services such as splinting and casting for broken bones, treatment for lacerations, wounds, or burns, and management of conditions like asthma or bronchitis. Some urgent care clinics may also provide occupational medicine and workers’ compensation services.

These clinics typically have multiple exam rooms and are staffed by nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and medical assistants. Most urgent care clinics have a licensed physician on-site who serves as the medical director. Payments and co-pays for treatments at urgent care clinics are generally lower compared to emergency room visits.

While many walk-in clinics may have less on-site testing and imaging options than urgent care facilities that is not the case at Express Healthcare where a wide and comprehensive services are available.
