Urgent care
Came in with chest pain and short of breath.  Was seen with very little wait time.  Waited very little in exam room. Each staff member seemed to care about me and their job.  Was a very good experience.

Urgent care
Staff were friendly. I was there a long time despite only one person ahead of me. Spent about 45 minutes in waiting room. Once I was in a room, provider was in within 2 minutes. But then took another 30-45 mins for them to prep the shots. Overall, I think it’s faster than it has been previously.

Urgent care
I had a walk in visit to renew long-term medicarion.  In this computer age, I feel it’s ridiculous to have to laboriously put in ALL information each visit.  What’s the deal?  I was the only person in the waiting area on a rainy afternoon and the wait was too long. Receptionist was friendly. Nurse was not  friendly. The PA on duty was nice and helpful. She allowed me 6 months on my recurring medication vs the 3 months that the dr will only give me.  Had to ask for a print out of my blood work from several months before. Again, why is it that cannot be emailed to me?  Don’t understand why I have to come in to get the results vs getting them online or emailed. Ridiculous!  This practice needs to step things up a bit.

This visit was much easier than the last. About six months or so ago, I went to the same location, and ended up not even being seen because the person at the front desk didn’t understand my VA insurance. But this time, there was a new kiosk, and a new online procedure. The front desk even had my Military insurance and private insurance updated.  I did have a problem with the online registration, and the young lady at the front desk had to get my cell phone and help me through that process. I highly recommend this provider.

The staff were very accommodating to me as I walked in to treat a later diagnosis of an ear infection. The nurses ask good questions and the doctor that took care was of me quickly identified what I had and quickly ruled out if I had Covid and got me medication at Walmart on Labor Day.

I scheduled an online visit for my teenage daughter with complete ease. From the moment we walked into the waiting room and then to the treatment room and again at our exit we were greeted by the kindest and professional staff. They were wonderful to us and very concerned about caring for my daughter and getting her what she needed. Our provider was especially kind and in depth with her medical care. Each time a staff member left the treatment room my daughter said, “They are so nice mom.” I was very satisfied with the care and felt great about what the provider diagnosed and recommended for treatment. Also the clinic was super clean! Stacy Dennis

Urgent care
I’ve had a cough for about 6 weeks. Decided today I’d had enough. Went to AFC Montclair.  The receptionist was as very friendly and sign in was relatively easy. Not much of a wait time. Triage nurse was friendly and got vitals quickly. Didn’t wait long at all when nurse practitioner came in. She ordered the necessary tests and they were done timely and the technician/nurses was very friendly. Had to wait just a little bit for tests results but not too long. Nurse practitioner came in and told me the results and ordered meds. Before I left, pharmacy notified me they received the med orders. I’ve us s this AFC for a long time and i will continue to do so.

Urgent Care FAQs

  • What is urgent care?

    Urgent care is a healthcare service focused on providing immediate, non-life-threatening medical attention. Urgent care centers treat conditions such as sprains, cuts, burns, and common illnesses and offer a range of services, including diagnostic and preventive care like immunizations and physicals. With an estimated 15,000 clinics in the U.S., urgent care centers operate beyond traditional primary care office hours, offering a convenient and lower cost alternative to emergency rooms for urgent but minor health issues. 

  • What is a walk-in clinic?

    A walk-in clinic is a type of healthcare facility that provides medical care to patients without the need for an appointment. These clinics cover a range of services such as urgent care, occupational medicine, and primary care with walk-in availability. They cater to non-emergent health issues, offering a convenient option for accessible medical attention. Walk-in clinics vary from free services provided by government, charity, or foundation-operated facilities to private clinics with affordable rates, serving as a practical alternative for minor illnesses and injuries outside of traditional doctor's offices and emergency rooms.

  • Do urgent care centers in Bessemer take appointments?

    Historically, urgent care centers were strictly an on-demand, walk-in healthcare service. More recently, as consumer behaviors and expectations have evolved, many urgent care clinics have begun offering book ahead visits, allowing consumers to select a same-day or next-day time that works best for their schedule. Use Solv to find a Bessemer urgent care center that offers advanced bookings (or appointments) and book online.

  • Are Bessemer urgent care centers open after hours?

    Yes. Most primary care doctor offices are open during routine work hours, Monday thru Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Conversely, most of the urgent care centers in Bessemer are available after hours, on weekends, and many holidays. Typical urgent care hours are 8:00 am to 8:00 pm daily, although location-specific hours may vary.

  • How much will an urgent care visit in Bessemer cost?

    The cost of a visit to an urgent care in Bessemer varies, with cash prices for the base visit generally ranging from $100 to $175. Additional treatments, such as lab tests, X-rays, or immunizations, can increase costs, typically between $50-150 each. If you're using insurance, expect a co-pay between $20 and $50, depending on your plan and whether the clinic is in-network. Prices differ based on location, so it's best to check directly with the urgent care center and your insurance provider for accurate cost estimates.
