Why You Should Get a Flu Shot for Your Child

5 Benefits Urgent Care Offers

1. Competitive Rates – Compared to a visit to the emergency room at the hospital, our urgent care facility in Venice is a far more affordable option.

2. Follow Up Care – When you visit Venice Urgent Care our physicians conduct follow up care to ensure you are healthy and comfortable after your initial visit.

3. Onsite Medication – At Venice Urgent Care you don’t have to make your way to a pharmacy after a visit because we provide in-house medication for prescriptions our doctors write.

4. Physicians – When you come to our urgent care in Venice you get to see an actual doctor with years of medical experience; whereas at most hospitals, you see a nurse or physician’s assistant first.

5. Minimal Wait Times – As our Venice walk-in clinic doesn’t accept appointments, you can visit anytime before 30 minutes of closing. Unlike hospitals, our wait times are minimal; allowing you to get care next to immediately after arriving.
