What should I expect during walk-in visits?

When you arrive at RGV Urgent Care Clinic for walk-in visits, compassionate providers welcome you and complete the following:

Vital signs check

Your RGV Urgent Care Clinic specialist offers you pain relief if you need it. They check your temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and other vital signs.

Medical history review

During a medical history review, they ask about your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle habits, and medications.

Physical exam

A physical exam includes an assessment of your overall health and wellness. Your RGV Urgent Care Clinic provider evaluates your eyes, ears, throat, heartbeat, breathing, abdomen, limbs, and more. They look for visible signs of illnesses, injuries, and diseases.

Diagnostic testing

RGV Urgent Care Clinic provides on-site labs, X-rays, and other diagnostic tests to check for possible medical problems and develop effective treatment plans. You might need nasal or throat swabs, urine tests, blood tests, heart- or lung-function testing, or other useful tests to pinpoint possible medical problems. 

Treatment

Common treatments available during walk-in visits include wound care, fracture care, over-the-counter or prescription medications, and other treatments that ease pain or help you recover quickly. 

Your urgent care specialist may recommend that you try home remedies, such as rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) or drinking more fluids.

When should I go to the emergency room?

If you have a life-threatening emergency, such as heavy bleeding, confusion, severe shortness of breath, chest pain and pressure, or other signs of a heart attack, head to the nearest emergency room or call 911.
