Urgent Care Q & A

What is urgent care?


An urgent care, or urgent care center, is a medical office that diagnoses and treats non-life threatening illnesses and medical emergencies.  

Portland Clinic of Holistic Health proudly offers naturopathic urgent care services to our established patients, in addition to routine medical services, including laboratory work, and biopsies. 

And quite often, the team can treat urgent medical needs with an all-natural, holistic approach, including Bio-Thermal Therapy®. 

What’s the difference between an ER and urgent care facility?

Emergency rooms treat life-threatening emergencies like heart attacks, strokes, and loss of vision. Urgent care, on the other hand, works to treat conditions that require immediate treatment but aren’t a threat to your life. 

Emergency rooms also treat patients based on their level of need, so if you suffer a sprained ankle while playing a game of basketball, you may have to wait hours to see a doctor if someone ahead of you is having trouble breathing or experiencing chest pain. 

The Portland Clinic of Holistic Health does not make patients wait long to see a doctor, regardless of their urgent care needs.

What types of illnesses and injuries does urgent care treat?

The team at the Portland Clinic of Holistic Health provides a full range of urgent care services, including treatment for:

  • Allergies
  • Asthma
  • Coughs
  • Colds
  • Earaches
  • Flu
  • Fingernail and toenail injuries
  • Lacerations
  • Sprains
  • Muscle strains

The team also performs minor surgical procedures, including casting of fractures, biopsies, and stitches. Patients can also access laboratory services such as blood testing, strep throat screenings, and sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing. If you need to see a specialist, the team can also provide you with a referral. 

How does Bio-Thermal Therapy® complement urgent care?

Bio-Thermal Therapy® is a powerful, noninvasive treatment that supports your body’s natural healing processes. This treatment combines several biologically compatible electro-therapies with a specially-timed thermal application to improve heart function and circulation. 

In addition, your doctor tailors your Bio-Thermal Therapy® treatment to your individual needs and health history.

At the Portland Clinic of Holistic Health, the team regularly uses Bio-Thermal Therapy® as a complement to urgent care to treat a variety of medical problems, including infections, musculoskeletal injuries, chronic pain, skin conditions, asthma, and musculoskeletal injuries.
