Visit Us to Treat Urgent Medical Concerns

Urgent care is a medical option for treating non-life-threatening conditions that require prompt attention. It bridges the gap between a primary care doctor and the emergency room, offering fast and effective treatment for issues like cold and flu symptoms, minor fractures, infections, headaches, and stomach problems. At Surfside Urgent Care of Laguna Beach, our experienced team delivers compassionate care without the long wait times or high costs of an ER visit.

You May Need Urgent Care If:

  • You experience a sudden fever, cough, or sore throat
  • You suffer a minor fracture, sprain, or strain
  • You have nausea, vomiting, or persistent diarrhea
  • You develop a skin rash, infection, or irritation
  • You experience painful or frequent urination
  • You need testing or treatment for an STI
  • You have a minor cut, burn, or insect bite
  • You need a pregnancy test or birth control options

Urgent Care vs. Emergency Room

Urgent Care

Urgent care is ideal for non-life-threatening conditions that still require timely treatment. At Surfside Urgent Care of Laguna Beach, we treat illnesses like cold and flu, gastrointestinal issues, minor fractures, sprains, and infections. Our clinic offers extended hours, walk-in visits, and a full range of diagnostic services, including X-rays and lab testing. Urgent care is faster, more affordable, and less stressful than visiting a hospital.

Emergency Room

Emergency rooms are best reserved for severe, life-threatening medical issues such as chest pain, difficulty breathing, major trauma, stroke symptoms, or uncontrolled bleeding. Hospitals are equipped with the staff and resources to handle critical emergencies that require immediate and advanced intervention. However, they often come with long wait times and higher costs. If your condition isn’t life-threatening, visiting urgent care is usually more appropriate.

Visit an Emergency Room Immediately If:

  • You experience chest pain or pressure that may indicate a heart attack
  • You have difficulty breathing or severe shortness of breath
  • You suffer a serious head injury or loss of consciousness
  • You show signs of a stroke, such as facial drooping or slurred speech
  • You have uncontrolled bleeding or deep wounds
  • You experience severe abdominal pain with fever or vomiting
  • You have a seizure or convulsions
  • You suffer major trauma, such as from a car accident or a fall
