Having a child that is sick and requires immediate medical care or attention is stressful enough for parents, never mind having to wait in a crowded waiting room for a doctor. However, the city now has an easy alternative to overcrowded emergency rooms and long waits in the newly opened Urgent Care Manhattan facility, located on the Upper West Side at Amsterdam Ave and West 69th Street. —
The Upper West Side’s only urgent care center, Urgent Care Manhattan is staffed exclusively by emergency physicians who are dedicated to providing patients with immediate personal attention. What’s more, the facility is available both for families who are insured and have an immediate need, and those who are uninsured and without a primary care physician. Founded and owned by two board-certified emergency physicians, the clinic is open 7 days a week and accepts walk-in patients. In fact, the clinic strives to have each patient seen by the doctor and on their way within an hour of their arrival.
