Urgent Care Doctors - What You Need to Know


Urgent Care Doctors Urgent care is a category of walk-in clinic concentrated on the delivery of ambulatory care in a dedicated medical facility outside of a traditional ER (emergency room). Urgent care doctors essentially treat injuries or illnesses needing immediate care, but not serious enough to require an ER visit.


Scope of Urgent Care Training

As urgent care practitioners are on the “front lines� of medicine, they have to be skilled in analyzing the condition and deciding the treatments required for assisting walk-in patients. Due to this, there is some overlap in the scope of practice between UCM and all existing medical specialties that involve direct patient care.


Rights Of An Urgent Care Doctor Urgent Care Doctors should not be limited other than through reasonable rules, regulations and bylaws of his or her medical staff or practice group. This involves reasonable, good faith deviations from current, published ACEP Clinical Policies based upon the appropriate clinical situation in a given patient.
