Urgent Care For Women At Alliance

Urgent Care FAQs

When should I go to urgent care?

While there are times when you may be able to wait until the next day, or even after the weekend, to see your doctor, sometimes an urgent care visit is necessary. You should consider urgent care if you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms:

• Unbearable pain after gynecologic surgery
• Acute pain or bleeding during pregnancy 
• Severe abdominal or pelvic pain
• Heavy or abnormal bleeding
• Burning while urinating
• Lower back pain 

While your dedicated physician can diagnose and treat these types of issues (and more), it’s still important to head to the emergency room if you’re having difficulty breathing, experiencing chest pain, fainting, or having a similar type of medical emergency. 

What happens during an urgent care visit?

The caring team at Alliance OB/GYN understands how overwhelming it can be to experience a concerning medical issue. 

As soon as you come in, the team works to get you into a private room as quickly as possible, takes your vitals, and if requested by your physician, draws blood or collects a urine sample.

Your dedicated practitioner talks with you about your symptoms and performs an exam, which may include a pelvic exam. Depending on the outcome of your evaluation, you might need an in-office ultrasound to confirm your diagnosis or rule out possible complications.

Once your provider gets to the root of your condition and makes a diagnosis, they counsel you about your medical ailment and talk with you about treatment options. 

Which types of treatments are available at an urgent care?

Alliance OB/GYN is dedicated to providing comprehensive urgent care services and helping you get started on treatment as quickly as possible. Your OB/GYN may recommend:

• Over-the-counter or prescription pain relievers
• Hormone treatments, such as birth control pills 
• Antibiotic medications

For serious issues, such as a large ovarian cyst, your practitioner could recommend surgery. The physicians at Alliance OB/GYN specialize in minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgery. They can get you scheduled right away if surgery is needed, so you can focus on recovering, rather than on pain and discomfort.

Alliance OB/GYN provides same-day appointment availability for urgent care needs. Book your appointment online or call the clinic nearest you if you need to be seen today.
