What to Expect:

These drop-in clinics aim to address non-urgent, low-acuity health issues. When you arrive, you will be asked about your reason for visiting to ensure appropriate care. Typical services offered include: - Prescription refills (excluding controlled substances) - Treatment for minor respiratory symptoms, sore throats, earaches, fevers, headaches, and rashes - Managing minor gastrointestinal issues such as vomiting and diarrhea - Support for coughs, colds, urinary tract infections, and muscle pain

Please note that lab tests and diagnostic imaging will not be performed at these clinics, and they are not intended as emergency services. If you require immediate care, it’s essential to visit your nearest hospital.
