MD Now Urgent Care is now providing fast, affordable and convenient medical care to North Fort Lauderdale

West Palm Beach, FL (PRWEB) September 28, 2014

MD Now, the leading and fastest-growing urgent care provider in Florida, opens its 19th facility on Monday, September 29. The newly constructed urgent care center will provide area residents and visitors with easy access to state-of-the-art medical services.

In addition to being MD Now’s 19th Florida location, the new facility will be its ninth in Broward County. The freestanding, 6,150 square foot facility will occupy the former site of the Stained Glass Pub at 5216 N. Federal Highway. The location is ideally situated to serve Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Oakland Park, Lauderdale Beach, Lauderdale by the Sea, and Wilton Manors.

“The flood of new patients since Obamacare took effect has led to a shortage of healthcare options and longer wait times,” explains Peter Lamelas, M.D., CEO of MD Now Urgent Care. “With the opening of our new North Fort Lauderdale center, we can provide an affordable, quality alternative to more-expensive ER visits.“

MD Now provides fast, affordable, and convenient immediate medical care with a full scope of services and treatments for injuries and illnesses like colds, broken bones, dislocations, cuts, burns, allergic reactions, sprains, strains, and more. With unmatched healthcare accessibility, MD Now keeps treatment all under one roof, also offering convenient access to comprehensive services.

Specific services at the new North Fort Lauderdale location will include:

Urgent care and episodic primary care

Work-related injury treatment

Physical therapy

Digital x-ray and EKG services

On-site lab testing and more

Most patients are treated and home in 60 minutes or less, making MD Now Urgent Care centers the place to go for immediate access to healthcare when time matters most. This quick and efficient treatment, a hallmark of MD Now Urgent Care centers, extends to all patients. “At MD Now Urgent Care, we are experts at caring for acute and episodic injury and illness in adults and children both quickly and affordably, so you can avoid waiting days for a doctor’s appointment or the expensive emergency room,” said Lamelas.
