Care for Common Health Needs

Illness Visits

When you feel under the weather, a clinician can evaluate common symptoms and discuss appropriate next steps. Visits may cover concerns such as coughs, sore throats, or fever. Call ahead to ask about current availability and whether the clinic can address your symptoms. If you have severe or life-threatening symptoms, call 911 or go to an emergency department.

Minor Injury Care

A same-day visit can help assess a minor injury and determine whether further care is needed. Describe what happened, when it occurred, and any symptoms when scheduling. The clinic can explain which injury concerns it can evaluate before you arrive. For severe bleeding, serious head injuries, or other emergencies, call 911 or go to an emergency department.

Physical Exams

If you need a general physical exam, contact the clinic to ask about available appointment types and required forms. Bring any paperwork, medication details, and relevant health history to your visit. Requirements can differ by school, employer, or program, so confirm that the clinic can complete the specific exam you need before booking.

Preventive Care

Use a visit to discuss routine health questions and preventive care needs with a clinician. The right services depend on your age, health history, and current recommendations. Call ahead to confirm what the clinic offers and whether you need an appointment. Bring a list of medications and any records that may help inform your conversation.

Lab Testing

Testing may help clarify some health concerns, but availability and suitability vary. Contact the clinic before your visit to ask whether it offers the test you need, whether an appointment is required, and how results are shared. A clinician can explain what a test may show and discuss next steps based on your situation.

Follow-Up Visits

A follow-up visit gives you time to discuss ongoing symptoms, questions, or next steps after an earlier evaluation. Share any changes since your last visit and bring instructions or test results you were given. Call the clinic to check whether a follow-up is appropriate and how soon you should be seen.
