Recognizing and determining what constitutes a medical emergency is an essential aspect of personal and public health. At Express Healthcare, we understand the urgency of immediate treatment in an emergency scenario that poses a threat to a person’s life, limb, or overall well-being.

Numerous scenarios and symptoms may indicate a medical emergency. For instance, if a person experiences sudden, severe chest pain or difficulty breathing, it could signify a heart attack or pulmonary embolism. These life-threatening emergencies require immediate medical attention.

Similarly, symptoms like sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the body, difficulty speaking, understanding speech, or vision problems could be indicative of a stroke. Any head injury involving loss of consciousness, seizure, or confusion should be evaluated immediately at our facility.

At Express Healthcare, we also handle medical emergencies like uncontrolled bleeding, severe burns, fractures, dislocations, and severe abdominal pain. We understand that timely intervention in these situations can save lives and prevent further complications.

High fever in infants, young children, or adults, accompanied by severe headaches or stiff neck, also necessitates emergency care at our healthcare facility.

At Express Healthcare, we believe that any situation involving severe pain, posing a risk to life or limb, or resulting in a significant change in a person’s physical or mental state may be considered a medical emergency. If you experience any of these symptoms or are in any doubt, we urge you to seek medical attention immediately. Time is critical in emergencies, and prompt intervention at Express Healthcare can significantly improve the chances of a favorable outcome.

If you find yourself in need of immediate care for a non-life-threatening emergency, Express Healthcare is the ideal place to seek timely and appropriate medical attention. Here’s why:

We are an urgent care center that operates beyond regular doctor’s office hours. We provide walk-in medical services for conditions that require immediate attention, such as minor injuries, cuts, burns, colds and flu, earaches, urinary tract infections, simple fractures, and infections.

Our facility also operates as a walk-in clinic where you can see a nurse or a physician assistant for minor illnesses and injuries. Additionally, we provide routine health services like vaccinations and physical exams.

At Express Healthcare, we understand the need for remote medical consultations. Our telemedicine services allow you to consult with healthcare providers remotely through video or phone calls. This is particularly beneficial during off-hours or if traveling to a clinic is not possible. 

Apart from walk-in services, we offer same-day appointments for immediate care without having to go to an emergency room or a different urgent care center.

In case of a life-threatening emergency, immediate medical attention is crucial. Call 911 or proceed directly to the nearest emergency department. Signs that require urgent care include severe chest pain or breathing difficulties, sudden weakness or numbness, excessive bleeding, loss of consciousness, or suspected overdose.
