MEET THE URGENT CARE TEAM
At Optim Orthopedic Urgent Care, a physician assistant or nurse practitioner will examine you, order x-rays if needed, provide a diagnosis and treat your specific injury. If the physician assistant or nurse practitioner determines that a physician is needed for your issue, a referral to one of our orthopedic physicians at the location of your choice will be made.

DO I NEED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AN URGENT CARE VISIT
You do not need to make an appointment for an Urgent Care visit. Check-in at the front desk and let them know you are here for an urgent care visit.
WHY DO WE GET TO “AVOID THE EMERGENCY ROOM WAIT AND COST” IF WE ATTEND AN OPTIM ORTHOPEDIC URGENT CARE - DOES THIS REALLY SAVE ME TIME AND MONEY
Emergency rooms are great for life threatening illnesses but they often lack the specialty training to deal with the minor bone, joint and muscle injuries that most people experience. At a busy emergency room, the visit can often take four to six hours. An Optim Orthopedic Urgent Care visit usually takes less than one to two hours. The Emergency room costs can often reach $1200 to $1500 compared to a few hundred dollars in an Urgent Care.
HOW IS OPTIM ORTHOPEDIC URGENT CARE UNIQUE COMPARED TO OTHER URGENT CARE CLINICS
At Optim Orthopedic Urgent Care, all we treat is bone, joint and muscle problems. Our providers are specialty trained to take care of these specific problems, because of this, they are focused and well-educated to give you the best care for your specific needs. Additionally, we have a large selection of necessary braces, splints and devices for conveniently ready for your injuries.
WHAT AGES ARE WELCOME AT OPTIM ORTHOPEDIC URGENT CARE CLINIC
We see pediatric through geriatric patients in our urgent care clinics. The urgent care is intended for evaluation of recent injuries. If you need an evaluation for a pediatric developmental problem, you should make an appointment to see one of our pediatric orthopedic specialists.
