News Release issued June 6, 2019.
MedExpress Urgent Care, a neighborhood medical center, is the most recent MedExpress center in Longmont, Colorado to receive Certified Urgent Care designation. The center offers walk-in care for people of all ages, providing urgent care, employer health services and basic wellness and prevent services and has met all of the Urgent Care Association of America's established criteria.
The health care environment is changing and it is becoming more and more important for patients to understand their treatment options. Urgent care centers such as MedExpress are open every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., making them a convenient option for unscheduled, timely healthcare needs. Focused on the treatment of everyday illnesses and injuries that require timely attention, urgent care centers help bridge the gap between emergency care and ongoing, chronic care with primary care physicians.
At MedExpress, walk-in treatment is available for everyday illness and injury – including treatment for spring and summer ailments such as seasonal allergies and rashes – as well as more advanced services including X-rays, labs, minor surgery, stitches and treatment for broken bones, sprains and strains. Local employers can use MedExpress for employer health services that include workers’ compensation, injury care, pre- and ongoing employment screenings, physicals and regulatory exams. Basic wellness and prevention services include sports physicals, routine physicals and immunizations to help Denver-area residents maintain good health.
With its certification, MedExpress and the Urgent Care Association of America demonstrate their commitment toward providing patients with access to quality, convenient and affordable care.
