Walk-In Options for Non-Emergency Illnesses
Are you looking for a walk-in option for an illness that doesn’t rise to the emergency room level? You’ve found us! The Family Health West Urgent Care Clinic is staffed with Board Certified physicians and nurse practitioners, 7 days a week, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Our Urgent Care Clinic is easy to find and access, located just south of the Fruita I-70 ramp and behind the Vietnam War Memorial Park. Urgent Care is next door to the Family Health West Primary Clinic at 401 Kokopelli Blvd, Unit 3, Fruita. Just walk in, no appointment is needed, and our compassionate caregivers will treat you like family.
We won’t test your patience, but we can do a number of tests to help diagnose a sudden on-set issue, a broken bone, offer stitches, or treat an illness. Our Urgent Care Clinic commonly sees patients for the following:
- Testing for suspected strep throat, influenza, urinary tract infections, and more
- Sports injuries, scrapes, bumps, and bruises
- Sinus infection, congestion, difficulty breathing, etc.
- Achy heads and ears
- Minor burns, rashes, and skin irritants
- Suspected broken bone(s) or sprains
- Vomiting, diarrhea, and/or dehydration
- Illness or injury that is not life-threatening
Labs can also be done at our Urgent Care Clinic, and x-rays will soon be available on-site. Currently, x-rays are available through the Family Health West Radiology Department (in the FHW Hospital) with orders from a caregiver at our Urgent Care Clinic.
