What are sick visits?

Sick visits, also called acute care visits, are appointments aimed at diagnosing a current set of symptoms and getting you started on a prompt treatment path. There is no need to suffer when a sick visit can help you feel better more rapidly than self-care options.

One way to decide whether a sick visit is the right fit for yourself or a loved one is to consider whether your symptoms can wait to be seen during a normally scheduled office visit. If you don’t think it’s possible, a sick visit may be the best option.

What kinds of issues can be seen during sick visits?

Guardian Angels Health Center can assist with numerous common health issues. Some of the conditions that bring people in for sick visits include:

Fever
Sore throat
Cough
Urinary tract infection (UTI)
Sexually transmitted disease (STD) screening and treatment
Allergy symptoms
Skin rash

These are just a few of the health problems that your provider can address during a sick visit. If you’re unsure how to proceed, reach out to the Guardian Angels Health Center for guidance on the best fit for your needs.

How can I prepare for my sick visit?

A small amount of preparation can help you make the most of your time at Guardian Angels Health Center. No one is at their best when they feel sick, and it’s easy to overlook something when you’re feeling unwell.

Begin by creating a written list of any medications or supplements you take, as well as any health issues you have or have recently been treated for. If you have questions or concerns, it might also be a good idea to write them down so you don’t forget to ask about anything during your visit.

If you feel especially sick or stressed, have someone accompany you to your sick visit. A second set of ears is always helpful when it comes to receiving medical guidance, and you shouldn’t have to drive when you’re sick or in a state of high stress.
