Urgent Care Q & A

What types of services are available at an urgent care?

What is IV Therapy?

Intravenous (IV) therapy, also called infusion therapy, quickly provides fluid and/or medications to your system via your circulation system, which is faster than your digestive tract. It can treat dehydration by providing a rapid infusion of fluid to your entire body. IV therapy can also treat a cold or the flu, electrolyte imbalances (due to illness or other conditions), metabolic conditions, or a vitamin deficiency.

IV therapy is also an option for the occasional treatment of a hangover, infusing patients with a combination of ingredients such as B vitamins, anti-nausea medication, pain medication, and an antacid. This helps treat hangover symptoms quickly and lets patients return to their daily schedule.

What types of minor surgery are available?

Using state-of-the-art treatments and facilities, Warner Plaza Urgent Care’s physicians can perform on-site minor surgical procedures such as abscess, mole, or wart removal, genital warts elimination, laceration (cut) repair with sutures, and more. The experienced physicians always opt for the most minimally invasive form of repair, resulting in fewer incisions and a quicker recovery. Patients undergo these surgical procedures quickly and conveniently, in a relaxed and caring environment.
