The number of Urgent Care centers in California is on the rise and is becoming an increasingly part of standard care. This boost in availability makes it possible for more people to receive urgent care without waiting for an appointment with their PCP. Here at Up Clinics, we’re proud to provide our community with services for concerns that need immediate attention without necessitating an Emergency Room visit. Urgent Care Clinics save patients millions of dollars every year while ensuring that Emergency Room staff can focus on life-threatening emergencies.

Treatment Options Available At Up Clinics
We here at Up Clinics are proud to provide an important care alternative for patients who have medical needs that aren’t life-threatening but need immediate care. The services we provide give another alternative for care outside of the emergency room when scheduling a doctor’s visit isn’t practical. Among the medical conditions that we can provide care for at our office are the following:
- Upper respiratory illnesses
- Urinary tract infection
- Gastrointestinal illnesses
- Allergic reactions and asthma
- Pink eye
- Ear infections
- Sinus pressure and sinus infections (sinusitis)
- And many more
This list represents just a short set of examples of the conditions that we treat and is not exhaustive. When considering whether it’s time to visit the ER or whether Urgent Care can provide for your needs, are you experiencing:
- Shortness of breath
- Pain in the left arm, left jaw or chest
- Burns or cuts that are serious or won’t stop bleeding
- Seizures
- Severe allergy responses
- Confusion or other mental concerns
- Fainting or loss of consciousness
- Injuries or broken bones in multiple areas
- Abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding, especially when pregnant
These conditions require the attention of emergency room staff and represent potentially life-threatening situations. Our medical team has the training and equipment to handle an impressive range of non-life-threatening conditions, but when your life may be in danger, only an emergency room visit will ensure you get the treatment you need.
