Many people may have access to a primary care physician or pediatrist that can deal with many of the health issues that arise. Internists are another choice of doctor who can help.   There are times when problems arise that you may want to be addressed when your primary doctor is too busy to see you or isn’t available. An urgent care clinic is another option for those times when you need to see a doctor for a health concern that isn’t life-threatening, like a cold or flu. Urgent care clinics are staffed with doctors, such as internists and medical staff who can treat these concerns and many more. They are often open later than a family practice and are often open on weekends for your convenience.
