Keep Tabs on Your Health with a Checkup at Our Urgent Care

Be seen today for the physical exam you need to get a clearer picture of your overall health and wellness. These physicals are beneficial whether they’re required for back-to-school or clearance to play sports, or simply to get a checkup. In fact, we tell our patients that physical exams are highly beneficial because they are a type of preventative care to establish a baseline for your health stats. That means that even if you don’t feel unwell, these exams can detect certain illnesses that are free of symptoms in the early stages when they are easier to treat.

What Happens in a Physical Exam?

Physicals begins by checking your weight and vitals, like blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature. Next, your provider will meet with you and discuss your health history and ask if you have any concerning medical symptoms before checking your heart and lungs, head and neck, abdomen, skin and nails, and muscle strength and reflexes. During your appointment, your provider can discuss ways you can keep in the best health possible and counsel you on better lifestyle habits. You can also discuss medication review, mental health assessments, and check if you are current on your vaccines. If necessary, your provider may order a diagnostic lab test and obtain blood and/or urine specimens for analysis. 

How Often Should I Have A Physical Exam?

It is commonly recommended for adults to have a general physical exam once a year. However, the frequency of physical exams can vary depending on several factors, including your age, overall health, medical history, and any specific risk factors you may have. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional at California Urgent Care Center to determine the appropriate frequency for your specific situation.

Frequently Ask Questions We're Here to Help
  • What is telehealth?
    Telehealth (also known as Telemedicine) is a doctor’s visit that does not require face-to-face interaction. It occurs 100 percent online. You can use your computer, tablet, or smartphone to conduct a telemedicine appointment. This is a great option for people with busy schedules who do not have time to visit their doctor in person. It is also a great option for people in rural areas who do not have the same access to healthcare as people in large cities. Now, patients can meet with a medical professional from the comfort of their own homes.
  • When Should I Use Urgent Care Telehealth Services?

    Of course, you cannot receive treatment for every medical issue during a telemedicine appointment. Some medical issues require in-person treatment at our urgent care center. However, you could consider taking advantage of urgent care telemedicine if you are experiencing the following health concerns.

    • Certain respiratory conditions, including colds and seasonal allergies 
    • Ear, nose, and throat ailments
    • Certain skin rashes or infections 
    • Headaches
    • Joint aches and pains
    • Nausea or vomiting

    You could also consider taking advantage of urgent care telemedicine under the following circumstances. 

    • Reviewing your lab or test results
    • Following up on a previous medical visit

  • How Much Does Telemedicine and Urgent Care Cost?
    The cost of a telemedicine appointment will vary depending on your health insurance coverage. However, a telemedicine appointment at an urgent care center is much cheaper than the cost of visiting a California emergency room. Emergency room costs will differ depending on the particular hospital you visit. Our urgent care center costs are more streamlined and patient-friendly.

  • Why Should I Use Your Telemedicine Urgent Care Services Over Others?

    At California Urgent Care Center, we prioritize providing patients with safe and professional medical services. Our professional staff and licensed providers work extremely hard to prevent long wait times. This applies to both in-person consultations and telemedicine appointments. 

    In most cases, you can receive a telemedicine appointment the same day you request one. This sets us apart from many of our competitors who have limited resources and cannot meet the demands for telehealth during the coronavirus pandemic.
