Urgent care or the emergency room?
Urgent care suits mild and moderate conditions such as small wounds, fever or minor injuries during clinic hours. Life-threatening conditions such as severe chest pain or loss of consciousness require going straight to the nearest emergency room or calling an ambulance on 123.
Is the booking for an exact time?
Booking guarantees your visit within the doctor's clinic session, and patients are seen in order of arrival within that session.
