Acute Illness

Cough, cold, congestion, runny nose, aches and pains - we handle it all! We will provide the care you need to get back to feeling well.

Allergic Reactions

Unexpected allergic reactions can be caused by a wide variety of things, such as bug bites and stings, food, pet dander, medication, or chemical agents. Exposure to these allergens can cause the immune system to react, resulting in red, itchy skin, coughing, watery eyes, nasal congestion, stomach pain, or nausea. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, we can help identify the cause and treat your symptoms. If you experience the sudden onset of difficulty breathing, low blood pressure, vomiting, or fainting, seek emergency care immediately. These could be signs of anaphylaxis, which is life-threatening.

Cuts and Lacerations

If you have a cut, scrape, or laceration, it may be difficult for you to decide if you need stitches or bandaging. In general, if you have a cut that will not stop bleeding, is too large to press the edges together, is deep enough to expose the next layer of skin, is from an animal or human bite, or was caused by a rusty object stop by DHR Health Urgent Care for treatment. We will examine the cut and provide the best course of treatment.

Diagnostic Testing and X-Ray Imaging

We have a wide range of testing capabilities at DHR Health Urgent Care to ensure we are able to diagnose and treat you as quickly as possible. We offer laboratory testing, electrocardiograms (EKG), x-ray imaging, and more all on site.

Ear Infections

An ear infection occurs when the middle ear becomes inflamed due to fluid behind the ear drum, which is usually caused by a viral infection or allergies. If your child has ear pain, is pulling or tugging at the ear, has a fever, or fails to respond to sounds, he may have an ear infection. Our family-friendly and welcoming medical team will quickly evaluate your child so you can start treatment and get your little one feeling better fast.

Respiratory Illness

If you have a cough that won't stop, or a cold that won't get better, an upper respiratory illness may be to blame. Upper respiratory illnesses affect the lungs and upper airways, causing problems such as bronchitis, pneumonia, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Our team can help diagnose your illness and provide a treatment plan to get you on the path to feeling better. We can also refer you to specialized care if needed.

Sprains, Strains and Broken Bones

If you have a sprain, strain, or broken bone, we are the team to get you on the road to recovery. A medical exam and x-ray will determine the location, extent and type of injury you may have. We will treat the injury and provide options for follow-up care to ensure proper healing.

I have nothing but positive feedback for this location. The reason I give it such a high rating is because of the LVN. I have been going for years and she always makes me feel at ease.

My husband and daughter, including me, were recently seen by Dr, Tucker in the Urgent Care. We are very pleased with the services, especially Dr Tucker, who is kind enough to follow up how we are doing several days after we were treated there. Thank you for everything.

Best experience and patient care!! Dr. Tucker went above and beyond during our visit and tried to make the long wait as comfortable as possible for us. He was kind enough to provide us snacks while we waited. He cared enough to follow up the next (day) to check up on my son and how he was feeling. Thank you, Dr. Tucker, for being a great physician.

My daughter twisted her ankle earlier, and (I) took her here. First off, they had wheelchairs available right in the front. (So helpful). Everything went smoothly, from reception to vitals to the PA, and I loooooved the x-ray tech that went way beyond his job. Thank you DHR Health Urgent Care!

… I was given the royal treatment on my previous visit to DHR Urgent Care…I was seen by Dr. Donald Tucker. This doctor not only was nice, kind, and friendly, but his bedside manner was SUPERB!!!!! The staff, such as Brianna, John, Brenda, and Margarita also displayed exceptionally!! It has been said that customer service can make or break a business. In this case, Dr. Tucker and his staff are second to none…Thank you, DHR, for being selective when choosing your employees, and thank you, Dr. Tucker, for making my day!
