Urgent Medical Care is becoming the choice of more Americans. They’re tired of going to a busy Emergency Room, or an overcrowded doctor’s office. They want to be able to get Urgent Care Services like x-ray’s, prescriptions, as well as professional care, without the long wait or the high cost. Above Urgent Care Center has come in to do just that. We serve the San Bernardino County area and we’re ready to become the place your go to place for Urgent Care Services. But first let’s take a look at how Urgent Care services are making a difference.
Urgent Care – is it the best alternative?
If you’ve ever had a medical emergency like a cut or sprain, the first thing you might think is to do is to either make an appointment with a doctor’s office or go to an emergency room. With the realities of the new economy, many ER’s are beginning to close their doors, causing most doctors offices to become overcrowded. This also increases the strain on the remaining ERs. Wait times can include hours for some people. But these aren’t the only problems. Overcrowding has led to people being left in hallways while they wait and as well as higher prices for treatment.
Above Ave Urgent Care is just the beginning to a solid alternative. With these difficulties in place, Urgent Care Services have stepped up to fill in the gap. In fact, the Urgent Care Association of America has reported some interesting statistics
- Urgent care centers grew by approximately 330 from 2008-2009 and 304 from 2009-2010
- 57% of patients wait 15 minutes or less to be seen
- About 80% of all visits are 60 minutes or less
- 92.9% of urgent care centers use computerized systems for practice management
- 3 Million patients visit urgent care centers each week
- More than 28% of centers are hospital owned
These are just some of the many benefits places like Above Urgent Care Center are bringing to the community. They bring an ER level treatment for less time and less price. In fact, most people are motivated by price more than anything.

What About The Trade-Offs?
With all these benefits, aren’t there trade-offs to using Urgent Care Services, instead of regular clinics and doctors offices? A few. Doctor’s main concerns are that people won’t have a primary physician. The Urgent Care Services don’t follow the standard approach of one doctor overseeing someones care. It doesn’t always allow for a relationship to develop between care giver and patient. But with the rising influence of Urgent Care Services, more hospitals are opening up their own urgent care facilities. This will cause more people, who wouldn’t normally go to a hospital, to become a part of their system. It will also cause hospitals to give care at more affordable prices and lessen the stress of overcrowded ERs. Clinics will also have to find ways to make care more convenient and affordable.
