Illnesses and accidents rarely hit at convenient times or give you time to plan an appointment in advance. Fortunately, our urgent care  PRIMA URGENT CARE offers fast, affordable care — usually at a lower cost than emergency room (ER) treatment.
When your condition isn’t severe enough to make a trip to the ER but you don’t have time to schedule a primary care visit, urgent care is an excellent option. At Prima Medicine, our providers offer comprehensive urgent and immediate care services to patients at our locations in Fairfax and South Riding, Virginia.
Emergency room care providers treat the most serious or life-threatening issues first. This makes sense, but it also means that if you have an urgent but non-life-threatening condition, you might wait hours for medical care.
That’s why providers recommend urgent care for non-life-threatening medical issues that require urgent or near-urgent care.
