Urgent Care is a convenient, efficient option for non-emergency medical conditions, such as unexpected cuts, burns, sprains and fractures that don’t require a trip to the emergency room but can’t wait for a primary care appointment. Staffed by Doylestown Health-certified providers, Doylestown Health Urgent Care accepts unscheduled walk-in patients needing x-rays, stitches, minor prescriptions, procedures and other urgent care.
“Doylestown Health is proud to bridge the gap between primary care and the emergency room, meeting a basic medical need while providing added convenience and cost savings to our patients,” Dr. Reinhardt said.
By achieving UCA accreditation, Doylestown Health Urgent Care demonstrates its commitment to providing the highest level of quality care to its patients.
