Urgent Care is probably your best option. I think the name implies a bit more than what it actually is; it's basically a corporatized group practice for general/family docs who don't want the hassle of running their own thing. At least that's been my experience, and I've talked to some quite helpful docs in them.
And for my soap box to anyone reading this - remember it when someone tells you that free/public healthcare creates long waiting times. It may, but we don't seem to be doing great here either.
- cableshaft 3y agoI have a primary care doctor now, but there was a time where I would exclusively go to urgent cares (usually the same one, and got to know the people there). Often they have better testing capabilities than primary care doctors (mine has to send me to a nearby hospital for anything more than taking blood). I've gotten X-rays, ultrasounds, and even MRIs (imaging center was next door) without even leaving the building before.
