Easy Access Healthcare with Urgent Care

Posted on Aug 27, 2021

On top of providing immediate healthcare for non-critical cases, the Urgent Care Clinic also administers vaccines such as anti-rabies, tetanus, and flu.

 

St. Luke’s Medical Center Global City’s Urgent Care Clinic provides easy-access healthcare as it offers a comprehensive range of medical treatment for non-life threatening and non-critical conditions. The clinic acts as a link to the main hospital for patients seeking immediate medical advice and treatment for minor and non-COVID-related symptoms.

 

By providing immediate and effective healthcare, Urgent Care ensures that patients’ medical treatment is not delayed even during these challenging times amid a health crisis. Non-critical diseases like body aches and painful urination may be seen as minor, but receiving urgent treatment can pay dividends in helping manage diseases to avoid them from spreading. This is the same case with injuries like minor cuts and scrapes that can easily worsen due to infections if left unattended.

While separate from the main hospital, Urgent Care continues to operate following the gold standards set by St. Luke’s. The Clinic is managed by Emergency Room (ER) physicians who oversee immediate and effective treatment to patients while also ensuring that it can cover a wide range of medical specialties and ancillary services. Although a healthcare provider on its own, it is important to note that the Urgent Care Clinic is not meant to replace primary care for patients with conditions or symptoms in-need of further evaluation and treatment.

 

Since Urgent Care is meant to be a convenient link for patients seeking urgent treatment, the Clinic works closely with Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) and other insurance companies to promote affordable healthcare. With St. Luke’s being a leader in patient experience and continuity of care, Urgent Care espouses the same philosophy, emphasizing that the patient’s experience while in the Clinic must be efficient, comfortable, and worthwhile.

 

Besides treatment, patients may also avail other services such as urgent vaccinations like anti-rabies and tetanus shots. It also offers walk-in vaccinations for flu shots, HPV, varicella, pneumococcal, and MMR. The clinic also welcomes patients who are in-need of pre-employment and annual check-ups together with occupational health concerns.


Through the Urgent Care Clinic, St. Luke’s strives to provide a convenient option to empower patients seeking immediate medical treatment for non-critical cases, creating a space where urgent treatment meets world-class service.
