Walk-in clinics and doctor’s offices both provide important medical and healthcare services to meet different patient needs. You might schedule an appointment at your primary care physician’s office for an annual checkup or routine physical, but visit a walk-in clinic when you have an acute injury or illness and need treatment right away. The Well-Being Medical Center in Naples, FL, has a walk-in clinic and regular doctor’s office, where Dr. Ricardo Martinez can help you achieve better health.
Doctor’s Office
The doctor’s office is where you see your primary care physician for routine health care, such as annual checkups, physical exams, and immunizations. Having a primary doctor you see regularly can help you maintain better health since there is someone familiar with your medical history monitoring your overall health.
Another way a primary care physician helps you stay healthy is by making recommendations to help you reduce your risk for certain illnesses, conditions, and diseases. The doctor can also help you manage chronic conditions, such as diabetes, and its symptoms.
Walk-In Clinic
Walk-in clinics provide urgent care services for acute injuries and illnesses without the need to schedule an appointment. At our convenient walk-in clinic in Naples, FL, patients enjoy shorter wait times and save money over visiting a hospital for urgent care.
