Sniffles, sprains, stomach upset–we all know the symptoms that send you running for the nearest urgent care facility. While minor ills and injuries are easily treated by our medical experts, Urgent Care of Fairhope offers even more services to safeguard your family’s health. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised as we unveil 8 things you probably didn’t know you could do at our urgent care facility. Let’s dive into these hidden gems!

1. Diagnostic Imaging and X-Rays

State-of-the-art equipment isn’t only for specialists! Whether you’ve had a clumsy fall or a mysterious pain, we’ve got you covered at Urgent Care of Fairhope. Our facility is equipped with the technology to perform in-house EKG and X-ray tests to help diagnose internal issues without the long wait times or bank-breaking costs of an ER visit.

2. Physical Exams

Need a physical for school, work, or your next sports season? Skip the long wait at your doctor’s office and stop by our walk-in clinic six days per week. We offer comprehensive physical exams to ensure you’re in top shape, whether you’re hitting the books, the field, or a new career path.

3. Vitamin B-12 Injections

Feeling a bit sluggish? Our Vitamin B-12 injections can be the pick-me-up you need! These shots are great for boosting energy, improving mood, and even aiding in weight loss. And if your doctor has prescribed Vitamin B-12 injections, you can receive them regularly in our walk-in clinic with fast results and minimal fuss.

4. Breathing Treatments

Asthma or a bad case of bronchitis got you wheezing? Our walk-in clinic can be a breath of fresh air with breathing treatments that help open tight airways, loosen thick mucus, and improve every inhale. Give us a call or stop by the clinic on your schedule to speak with our staff and learn the ins and outs of our breathing treatments.
