Find the Appropriate Care, Save Time and Money
When you need a doctor, Providence is here to provide immediate, urgent and ongoing care in a safe environment.
Having a primary care doctor is crucial for the early detection of potential issues. Getting regular check-ups helps you stay healthy, so that you can potentially avoid higher care costs.
If your illness or injury isn’t life-threatening, a visit to the Emergency Department (ED) can result in higher costs and longer wait times.
Providence has other affordable options that could get you the cost-effective care you need, much faster.
When you have an injury or illness that is serious but not immediately life-threatening, Providence Urgent Care can see you that day – while helping you save some time and money that you’d spend in the ED. Go to Urgent Care for:
- Allergic reactions, or animal and insect bites
- Burns
- Fever, cough, cold or flu
- Minor fractures and cuts, or sprains
- Vomiting, persistent diarrhea or dehydration
You can reserve a spot or walk in without an appointment.
Primary care is essential. It helps you prevent health issues, manage existing conditions and get more educated about your overall well-being. It includes:
- Annual exams and well-child checks
- Management allergies, asthma and skin conditions
- Preventative and wellness care
- Specialized care for women and men
- Vaccinations and immunizations
We build an ongoing relationship with you and refer you to any specialty care that you need.
Via a secure, online video call, Providence providers are available in minutes – and cost less than an Urgent Care visit. If you have a tablet, smartphone or computer, ExpressCare Virtual can help with minor conditions like:
- Chest congestion or respiratory infections
- Sinus infection and other nose, throat and eye problems
- Skin rash and minor burns
- Upset stomach
- Urinary tract infection
These providers can also call in a prescription to your pharmacy.
Call 911 or go to the Emergency Department (ED) if you or a loved one is experiencing:
- Difficulty breathing
- Fever in a child less than two months of age
- Heart attack or chest pain
- Head trauma
- Loss of consciousness
- Seizures
- Severe bleeding
- Stroke symptoms
