What to Know About the Level of Care We Put Into Our AFC Center

When considering visiting an urgent care center, we understand the level of hesitation that goes into it for some. If the wait is going to take forever and the treatment might not even be accurate, why visit in the first place?

This is a valid point, but not one that is relevant for our AFC center.

At AFC Urgent Care Hickory, we are proud of the level of care and attentiveness we provide to our patients. Read on to learn more about us!

• Our medical providers are required to have family care experience. A lot of urgent cares these days have in-house providers who are right out of school. That’s not the case with us! We require our doctors and medical providers to have experience before providing diagnosis and treatment plans.

• We’re different than our competitors. Most of the other urgent care clinics in the area don’t offer what we do offer: on-site lab exams and X-rays and normal operating hours on all holidays, with the exception of Thanksgiving and Christmas. Not to mention—we’re locally owned and operated, which is the icing on the cake!

• We don’t treat our patents like hospital systems do. Going to the ER is a huge waste of time and money for so many American families every year. Why pay thousands of dollars for non-life-threatening care at a hospital when you can get care at a much more affordable price at our AFC center? We provide the same quality care at lower rates, faster turnaround times, clear pricing and unaffiliated referrals to specialists.

• We care about how you feel after you leave our AFC center. Do you require a type of care that we can’t execute at our AFC center? If so, we will recommend you to some of our providers’ favorite specialists in the area, like Emerge Ortho or Catawba Women’s Center.

We’re not just another urgent care center that provides the same care with the same hours—we’re different! Learn more about us on our website and don’t hesitate to visit us.
