Urgent Care In Westmont, IL

MedlinePlus lists common mild illnesses as a good fit for urgent care, including colds, the flu, earaches, sore throats, migraines, low-grade fevers and limited rashes. Minor injuries also fit, such as sprains, back pain, minor cuts and burns, and minor eye injuries.

• Coughs, colds and sore throats, including strep throat testing and treatment
• Fever and body aches during flu season, with flu testing when it will help guide care
• Ear pain and sinus infections
• Cuts that may need closure, covered on our cuts and laceration treatment page
• Sprains and suspected broken bones, with fracture evaluation
• Urinary symptoms, rashes and other infections, including UTI testing

When you arrive, we ask about your symptoms, health history, medicines and allergies. A provider examines you and explains what they think is going on. If a test will change the plan, we may order one. Lab testing is available, and on-site X-ray is available only at our main clinic on Cass Ave.

Before you leave, we go over your diagnosis, treatment and what to watch for at home. If you need ongoing care or a specialist, we will tell you and help you plan next steps. We also send you home with clear signs that mean you should come back or go to an emergency room.

What to bring
