What could be worse than an accident happening, or a family member comes down with the flu while vacationing thousands of miles away from home? Travelers, having the time of their lives, suddenly need the services of an urgent care center. If they don’t have to, most tourists don’t want to spend hours in a hospital emergency room. There are fine doctor’s clinics and staff on Maui, but most people try to find an urgent care center to handle all their health care needs while away from home. Residents also like the convenience of just walking into an urgent care center and being treated quickly.
This is the type of care the Wailea Medical Center & Urgent Care provides to residents and vacationers who need them immediately. There is no waiting, and the most advanced technology is available to diagnose health problems. They also have fine doctors and staff ready to take care of everyone entering the center. People experiencing chest pain should still go to the emergency room at the local hospital. If they feel they’re having a stroke or a heart attack, these health conditions require intense and quick intervention by emergency room physicians.
Employers send employees to urgent care centers for annual health checkups and regular lab testing the job requires. Other people need special inoculations when going abroad to work or visit relatives. When vaccinations or inoculations are needed, such as pneumonia, shingles or flu shots, they’re readily available at the care center. Most urgent care centers make first visit forms available when scheduling an appointment with a Doctor in Maui. They’re available online, for patients to download and fill out before they get to the center.
The patient will list current and past health history on the form, which alerts the Doctor in Maui of ailments being dealt right now. Medications currently being taken by the patient will also be listed, giving the doctor an up-to-date report. Naturally, this saves the patient and doctor’s time when forms are filled out beforehand. When prescriptions need to be refilled, most care centers will write them out and even have them delivered to the hotel where the tourist (patient) is staying. Health care doesn’t have to be difficult when an urgent care facility is available.
