Urgent Care Medicine Only- multiple tasks during 8 to 12 hour shifts; seeing all ages from 8 weeks to 100 years old; with acute problems often compounded by chronic illnesses; patients unable to see their primary care providers in the appropriate time often rely on us to bridge that gap; we see infectious disease, acute coronary syndrome, COPD/asthma exacerbations, acute anxiety/depression; work-related injuries; fractures, lacerations, abscesses, as well as treat diabetes, hypertension, GERD, abdominal pain. We often have to oversee subspecialty referrals. We do not participate in chronic pain management and I personally do not treat bipolar disorders and seizure disorders.
