Urgent Care FAQs

When Should I Seek Care?

For life-threatening medical conditions – such as a heart attack, stroke, major burn, or severe injury – you need an emergency room. Call 9-1-1 as soon as possible to arrange prompt emergency care.

For non-emergency care, you should visit our urgent care clinic as soon as you notice symptoms. These can include coughing, congestion, aches and pains, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, dizziness/lightheadedness, and headaches. Taking over-the-counter medicine may help relieve the symptoms temporarily, but it won’t treat the underlying illness. 

If you are injured while playing sports, exercising, or working, you can also register online for our clinic. Our healthcare providers can deliver a quick diagnosis and recommend treatment. They can also refer you to specialists if you need additional care beyond our care center.

Our clinic is open 7 days a week, with late hours to accommodate you when you need us the most. Getting sick isn’t convenient, but we are.

Is MainStreet a Walk-In Clinic?

Yes, we love walk-ins. If you need quality care, visit our clinic as soon as you can. For shorter wait times once you’re here, make sure to register online. You can do this from your mobile device wherever you are.

What Should I Bring?

For each visit, please bring the following:

  • A photo ID (i.e. driver’s license, work ID, military/student ID, passport)
  • Proof of insurance
  • Emergency contact information
  • Any forms you need our providers to fill out
  • A list of your current medications (including dosage)
  • A form of payment

For the health of other patients and our providers, we ask that you wear a mask if you’re coughing or sneezing. We’ll gladly provide you with a mask if you don’t bring one.
