What do you do if you need medical care during the weekend or after-hours?

Question

Without resorting to the MUCH more expensive option of the emergency room. Besides, it is not an emergency but could turn into one very easily if not treated promptly.

Answer 1

Find a walk-in clinic.  They usually have later hours and are open on weekends.  Or you can call your doctors office, and a doctor on call can advice you over the phone.

Answer 2

Where I live there is this place that is called Insta Care. It is open till 9 or 10 everyday. Google and see if there is anything like that around where you live.

Answer 3

Go to an urgent care center.  They're usually at least half the price of an ER.
