To get immediate, accurate care for acute musculoskeletal injuries, visit the orthopedic urgent care center in Enfield or Vernon, CT. You’ll be seen and assessed right away so you feel better fast.
Avoid the ER or General Urgent Care Center
If you’ve dislocated a shoulder during a weekend basketball game, you’re in a lot of pain. You need a fast assessment, diagnosis, and treatment to feel better and regain full use of that arm as soon as possible.
Sadly, if you visit a hospital emergency room in your area, you’ll be triaged as non-emergent and non-life-threatening, putting heart attack patients and accident victims far ahead of you. You may wait and wait for someone to address your problem while you’re in a lot of pain.
Alternatively, if you visit a general urgent care center, you’ll be seen more rapidly than in the ER. However, you’ll be examined and treated by someone who also cares for patients with sore throats, UTIs, asthma attacks and other diverse medical problems. Your shoulder issue is musculoskeletal, and what you really need is the expertise of an orthopedic doctor in the CT area.

What can I expect at the orthopedic urgent care clinic near me?
Walk-in availability
When open, your orthopedic urgent care center is ready to treat you.
No appointment is necessary; simply walk-in, but we do ask that you call ahead, if possible, before you arrive. We have convenient hours–including Saturdays at our Vernon, CT, location. Greeted, triaged, and assessed by a highly skilled
provider quickly, you will receive care on-site.
Expert consultation
Your orthopedic urgent care center is staffed by professionals who specialize in musculoskeletal problems and injuries. You’ll be treated with a comprehensive orthopedic team made up of skilled, compassionate, and caring providers. As your treatment progresses, and you heal, a board-certified orthopedist will oversee your treatment plan.
A Wide Variety of Services
At our orthopedic urgent care centers, you can receive X-ray imaging, casting, assistive devices (crutches, canes and more) at the time of your walk-in visit. Plus, if advanced care, such as fracture reduction, physical therapy, surgery, or other complex treatments are needed, you’ll be scheduled with one of our orthopedic doctors at a clinic location convenient to you. He or she will follow your treatment plan personally, assuring you of excellent, specialized care.
Economical Care
Emergency room care from your local hospital or medical center is expensive. Orthopedic urgent care focuses on just one specialty area–your musculoskeletal system. Therefore, we are uniquely staffed and equipped to treat patients of all ages quickly and efficiently. We do not have the high overhead costs of a hospital ER which must accommodate high-cost care options, such as cardiology, obstetrics, and neurology.
