Going to the doctor for a minor illness or injury should be quick, affordable and easy. You shouldn’t have to wait until your doctor is available next week or month to see you or pay an unreasonable amount for emergency care if it’s not an emergency. At ETMC Urgent Care at Lake Palestine, you can receive immediate care without an appointment. The urgent care clinic can treat minor, non-emergency illnesses and injuries, including: broken bones, colds, coughs, earaches, fevers, flu-like symptoms, foreign bodies in the eye, headaches, rashes, sore throats, sprains, stomach viruses and urinary tract infections.
