About Summa Health Urgent Care

Summa Health Urgent Care is a perfect alternative to an emergency room for medical problems that are not life-threatening but need immediate attention. Our Summa Health Urgent Cares are staffed by board-certified physicians and Advanced Practice Registered Nurses and offer walk-in appointments and extended hours to treat acute, or short-term, illnesses and injuries.

Urgent care facilities typically have shorter wait times as well as lower costs than emergency departments, providing easier access for less money to patients who have medical problems that don’t require a trip to the emergency room but still need immediate attention. 

When should you consider visiting an urgent care facility?

Our centers are appropriate alternatives for the following scenarios:

  • Before or after your primary care provider’s regular office hours
  • On the weekends for non-emergency care
  • If you are unable to secure an appointment to see your personal physician

Summa Health Urgent Cares are designed to treat non-emergent medical problems that require immediate attention, such as:

  • Allergies
  • Minor asthma attack

  • Dizziness
