MedExpress Urgent Care

General Practitioners

Immunizations
Depending on the severity of a cut, stitches or staples may be required to stop the bleeding and help the healing process. After cleansing and exploring the wound, your MedExpress medical team may numb the area and apply stitches by carefully threading sutures from one end of the wound to the other. If appropriate, MedExpress may also use Dermabond – a tissue adhesive – to fuse the edges of the wound together. Depending on the nature of the wound and the patient's vaccination status, a tetanus vaccination may be necessary.
Sinusitis
Acute sinusitis typically lasts a short period of time, four weeks or less. An acute infection is usually part of a cold or other respiratory illness and medications are generally effective in stopping the infection.
Pediatric Care
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, the average child has about 8 to ten colds in the first several years of her life.

X-Rays

Kidney Stones
Your MedExpress neighborhood medical team includes full-time radiologic technologists, who can quickly diagnose a range of conditions – from broken bones to kidney stones.
Urinary Tract Infection
A urinary tract infection – or UTI – can be an uncomfortable and annoying experience. At MedExpress, our onsite labs mean we can quickly diagnose and treat your UTI so you can feel better fast.

Wound Care

Gynecology
Pregnancy
MedExpress does not provide routine gynecological or OB care, which includes conducting ultrasounds and prescribing birth control. However, we can conduct pregnancy testing after a medical evaluation and provide medical treatment to pregnant women who are being seen for a minor illness or injury.

Frostbite
Protecting any newly burned areas from exposure to cold, because burned skin can more easily develop frostbite.
Eczema
There are a number of skin conditions that can cause dry, painful, itchy skin, and blisters, rashes, or sores. Some common conditions we treat include cellulitis, eczema, impetigo, poison ivy/oak/sumac, ringworm, and shingles.
Fungus
Most of the time pneumonia is caused by a bacterial infection, but it can also be caused by a virus, fungus, or parasite. The infection causes inflammation in the lungs and causes the air sacs within the lungs – the alveoli – to fill with fluid or mucus. This fluid makes it difficult to breathe and limits the amount of oxygen the lungs can take in.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
With no appointment needed, MedExpress offers convenient and affordable camp, school, or sports physicals for your child athlete or camper.

Mental Health
If you’ve visited us as a patient, MedExpress can help make a mental health referral for new symptoms, but we also encourage you to reach out to community resources. If you have insurance, the 1-800 number on the back of your card will connect you with someone who can help with in-network referrals.
