AUSTIN, Texas—St. David’s CareNow® Urgent Care recently opened a new clinic near the Arboretum and Gateway areas in North Austin. The clinic, located at 10001 Research Blvd., is operated by St. David’s HealthCare’s national partner, HCA Healthcare.
“Austin is experiencing significant growth, and increasingly people want to access healthcare services closer to where they live and work,” David Huffstutler, president and CEO of St. David’s HealthCare, said. “The addition of this urgent care clinic will complement our already robust healthcare network and help us provide more convenient access for our patients.”
CareNow Urgent Care clinics offer quick care for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries, such as sprains and strains, minor burns, coughs, sore throats and flu-like symptoms, as well as physicals, vaccinations, general diagnostics and check-ups. Additionally, the clinic provides occupational medicine services to local employers, including examinations and treatment of injured workers in worker’s compensation cases, pre-employment screenings and drug tests.
Patients also have access to Virtual Care, which allows patients to see a highly qualified provider from the safety and convenience of their home. Walk-ins are welcome, or patients can save time by using Web Check-In to wait at home until it’s time to see their provider.
CareNow clinics are open seven days a week, with hours extending into the evening.
