Walk In Clinic Q & A

What is a walk-in clinic?

If you haven’t had time to book an appointment with your primary care doctor, but need medical treatment right away, a walk-in clinic is a great choice for quick, high-quality health care. A walk-in clinic is designed for speedy diagnosis and treatment of medical ailments or injuries that aren’t serious.

When should I go to a walk-in clinic?

  • Cough
  • Runny nose

A walk-in clinic also is a good option if you have minor injuries, such as a cut or sprain.

What does a walk-in clinic treat?

A walk-in clinic treats health conditions that aren’t serious enough to need emergency care. Common reasons to visit include:

A cold

A cold builds up over a few days. The most common symptoms include a runny nose, sore throat, sneezing, coughing, and headaches.

A sore throat

A sore throat can be caused by a virus or a bacteria, such as strep throat. Dr. Attoussi will determine the source of your sore throat by taking a culture.

Sinus infection

A sinus infection is an inflammation that’s commonly triggered by a cold or allergies. You’ll usually have a headache and stuffy or runny nose with a sinus infection.

You can also be diagnosed and treated for:

  • The flu
  • Bladder infections
  • Ear infections
  • Pink eye
  • Skin infections

If you need immunizations, an annual check-up, or a prescription, a walk-in clinic provides these services as well.

What should I expect during a walk-in visit?

Nashville Family Medical Clinic will see you on a first-come, first-served basis. If you’re feeling unwell, Dr. Attoussi will quickly assess your symptoms. He’ll ask about:

  • When your symptoms started
  • How long you’ve been feeling this way
  • Your medical history, including any medications you’re currently taking

You’ll be provided with treatment to set you on the path to recovery. If you need primary care treatment, Dr. Attoussi is a board-certified internist who specializes in caring for children, teens, and adults.
