Which type of doctor you should see

If you're unsure about where to go to for your medical emergency, our nurses are on the line to help you understand your situation.

For illnesses and injuries that are less severe, an urgent care clinic may be the better option. These may include:

• Bug bites
• Cold and flu symptoms
• Cuts or minor wounds
• Eczema
• Fevers
• Migraines
• Minor sprains
• Sore throat
• Warts

We'll assess the severity of your needs and if we determine an emergency room (ER) visit may be better, we'll recommend a different type of care. An ER is typically for severe injuries and life-threatening conditions, including:

• Chest pain
• Heart attack
• High fever
• Major burns and wounds
• Major trauma
• Poisoning
• Seizures
• Serious injuries
• Stroke
