Immediate Care, also known as walk-in care, provides health care services for diseases and injuries that require immediate attention. It is commonly used when you are unwell or injured and unable to visit your primary care doctor.
White-Wilson's Immediate Care Clinics treat patients for a variety of urgent care needs. Similar to urgent care, immediate care clinics provide an alternative to going to the Emergency Room for minor injuries and illnesses.
Immediate care specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries, such as:
Immediate care is accessible for all ages but should not replace the Emergency Room. If you have a fever over 104 degrees and other dangerous symptoms like vomiting, dizziness, confusion, chills, etc., go to the ER instead of urgent care.
Ultimately, immediate care services provide patients with robust, quality, and urgent care, saving time and money on ER visits.
As walk-in clinics, immediate care clinics are often confused with urgent care clinics. Urgent and immediate care physicians address the same conditions,
but your health insurance benefits may differ. Instead of urgent care clinics, immediate care clinics charge similar doctors' visits.
Additional fees may apply for any lab,
imaging or procedures needed at the point of service.
White-Wilson's Immediate Care Clinics are dedicated to providing urgent medical assistance to those in need. When you
visit a White-Wilson Immediate Care Clinic, all White-Wilson physicians
have access to your electronic medical record—helping to provide
you the most comprehensive health care. Additionally, we have a
full service lab and diagnostic imaging center at our Fort Walton
Beach Clinic, as well as lab and X-ray at the Navarre and

services.

Question: What is the difference between immediate care, urgent care clinic and walk-in care?
Answer: Immediate care and urgent care facilities are walk-in clinics because they are available when you need to see a doctor or advanced practice clinician right away.

Question: When should I go to an Immediate care or urgent care clinic?
Answer: Immediate or urgent care facilities treat non-life threatening illnesses and injuries, such as colds, flu, sprains, rashes, etc. If you are experiencing life-threatening symptoms, go directly to your nearest Emergency Room or call 911.
