walk-in clinics
Walk-in clinics are healthcare facilities that provide convenient medical care without the need for an appointment. They are designed to address minor illnesses and injuries, offer vaccinations, perform physical exams, and provide preventive care. Typically staffed by nurse practitioners or physicians, these clinics are often open extended hours, including evenings and weekends, making it easier for patients to seek care when traditional doctors’ offices are closed. Walk-in clinics are generally less expensive than emergency room visits and are a good option for non-emergency health issues.
