This was my first visit to this type of facility. I was miserable and thought I had the flu. I thought I’d give it a try instead of spending 3 or 4 hours waiting in the emergency room. The staff was efficient and friendly. I saw the doctor within 15 minutes and she was great. Great bedside manner, very professional and kind, too. She listened to all of my concerns and conducted a thorough exam. Overall, this was positive experience and I have highly recommended this facility to my friends and family. Thank you!

I went to this clinic on 6-24-19 having a terrible pain in my ear.On arriving, I met Patti Rinaldi, the nurse, who was very welcoming and sent me to registration. The staff was quick and efficient. The nurse returned to take me to the treatment room. There was something about her presence that made me feel at ease. I big thing for me since I tend to get anxious about medical situations.When the doctor (Dr. Nwosu) came in, he was professional and kind. He diagnosed my problem, told me what I needed to do, and sent me on my way, papers in hand to remind me of the visit. We are fortunate to have such a good urgent care in our area.

I will never go to another urgent Care center again, this is the best one I've ever been to, the staff was very friendly, courteous. I love the nurse she was very concerned about my son, I wish I knew her name. But very personable, sweet woman. The doctor was amazing, and asked all questions and was not in a rush. Thank you for getting my son better he's been sick for 2 weeks and his own pediatrician didn't even help. I will recommend this place and if I can give more stars I would.

What is urgent care?

Urgent care is a category of walk-in clinic focused on the delivery of immediate, non-life-threatening healthcare. These centers bridge the gap between primary care doctors and hospital emergency rooms, offering increased convenience and cost-effectiveness. Urgent care centers are typically open beyond normal office hours, including evenings and weekends, ensuring healthcare access when most doctor's offices are closed.

Common services and reasons for visit

Urgent care centers provide a wide range of services that cover most common health issues. They are equipped to handle non-life-threatening situations that require immediate attention. Here are some of the reasons you might visit an urgent care center:

  • Minor fractures, sprains, strains, and other injuries

  • Cuts and burns that might need stitches or dressing

  • Acute illnesses like flu, fever, asthma, allergies, and infections

  • Diagnostic services, including X-rays and laboratory tests

  • Preventive care such as vaccinations and routine physical exams

It's important to note that while urgent care centers can handle these situations, they are not a substitute for emergency care. For severe or life-threatening conditions, always call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Types of healthcare providers

At an urgent care center, you can expect to encounter different types of healthcare providers, each with their unique roles and expertise. Here's a brief look at who they are and what they do:

  • Physicians: These are medical doctors (MDs) or doctors of osteopathic medicine (DOs) who diagnose and treat a wide range of health conditions. They have completed medical school, residency training, and are licensed to practice medicine.

  • Nurse Practitioners (NPs): NPs are registered nurses with advanced training and education. They can diagnose and treat various conditions, prescribe medication, and may serve as a patient's primary healthcare provider.

  • Physician Assistants (PAs): PAs are medical professionals who diagnose illness, develop and manage treatment plans, prescribe medications, and often serve as a patient’s principal healthcare provider. They practice medicine under the supervision of physicians and surgeons.

  • Registered Nurses (RNs): RNs provide and coordinate patient care, educate patients about health conditions, and offer advice and emotional support to patients and their families. They work under the supervision of doctors and can assist with medical procedures.

  • Radiologic Technologists: These professionals perform diagnostic imaging examinations, such as X-rays, on patients. They work closely with radiologists to identify abnormalities and diseases.

Each of these providers plays a crucial role in delivering comprehensive, immediate care at urgent care centers. Their combined expertise ensures that

When to go to an urgent care

Urgent care centers are designed to provide immediate, non-life-threatening care to patients who need medical attention outside of normal office hours. They are a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the emergency room for conditions that aren't life-threatening but can't wait until a primary care doctor's appointment. Examples of situations where you might seek urgent care include minor fractures, sprains, burns, cuts that might need stitches, severe cold or flu symptoms, urinary tract infections, and other similar conditions.

Urgent care vs emergency room (ER)

While both urgent care centers and emergency rooms provide immediate care, they are designed for different levels of health concerns. Emergency rooms are equipped to handle life-threatening emergencies, such as heart attacks, strokes, severe bleeding, head injury or other major trauma, severe abdominal pain, or the sudden onset of severe symptoms. On the other hand, urgent care centers are ideal for non-life-threatening conditions that still require prompt attention. They also tend to have shorter wait times and lower costs compared to ERs.

Urgent care vs primary care

Primary care physicians are typically the first point of contact for patients with health concerns. They provide preventative care, treat a wide range of health conditions, and manage chronic illnesses. However, they operate during regular office hours and may not be available for immediate care during evenings, weekends, or holidays. Urgent care centers, on the other hand, offer extended hours and can provide immediate care for non-life-threatening conditions when your primary care physician is not available. They are not, however, meant to replace your primary care physician for ongoing care.

Urgent care vs retail clinic

Retail clinics, often found in pharmacies or grocery stores, provide care for minor illnesses and injuries, as well as preventative services like vaccinations. They are typically staffed by nurse practitioners or physician assistants and are a convenient option for simple health needs. Urgent care centers offer a broader range of services, including X-rays, lab tests, and treatment for more serious injuries and illnesses that are not life-threatening. They are typically staffed by physicians and can offer more comprehensive care than retail clinics.

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 Scranton 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 Scranton urgent care center that offers advanced bookings (or appointments) and book online.

  • Are Scranton 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 Scranton 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 Scranton cost?

    The cost of a visit to an urgent care in Scranton 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.

Fantastic experience. From the intake, setting the appointment, telemedicine visit, to being tested for Covid-19, everyone was friendly, efficient and kind. I made initial contact at 10am, and by noon I had completed a telemedicine visit, gotten my prescriptions and had a Covid test in the parking lot. This urgent care experience was far different from any other, and though it’s a bit of a drive, I will continue receiving services here. I’m shocked at how quickly the whole process was.

My wife, Phylis broke her toe 8 days ago. She is so stubborn and refused a trip to the doctors all week. Sure, we had buddy-taped the toe(she was correct, it really was broken) and one of the reasons for not seeing a doc was her experience that a doc couldn’t have done much more than she had. I tell you all this so you might understand her “reluctance” to come in. Throughout the week she struggled with walking so I finally got her to stop in the new urgent care. The two angels you had working Saturday 11/13 at 4 pm were awesome!! Somehow, they both went out of their way and hit exactly the right tone to get through to Phyl. They told her that even if it was broken, after 8 days of pain it could not hurt to let a medical professional look at the toe. Phylis raved about how gentle and thorough the front end staff, the nurse and the doctor were. And after more X-rays of her foot, she was provided a shoe-boot which thoroughly relieved the walking she needs to do. Thanksgiving is coming and Phyl will be making dinner for all of us, with minimal pain Other then what I introduce, of course! Phyl told the women at the reception area that she would sing their praises and she will. Neither of us would ever hesitate to return to Liberty for any emergency care

Front desk staff stunk! She told me to go home...Urgent Care does not check vitals! If I did not make it past your hound dog...I might have died, had a heart attack or stroke. Can you say liability risk?? When I got inside it was a whole different story. The "MEDICAL" staff were great! I went to the hospital by ambulance. My 24 hour hotline nurse from BC sent me to Urgent Care stat! Time for orientation for your front line people! Thank you for asking.

What an incredible experience! Facility was clean, wait time was non-existent, Micah, Allison, Kayla, and Mel all greeted me when I came in and everyone was so kind and so pleasant. What a wonderful crew who were so knowledgeable and took such amazing care of me. I will most definitely recommend Liberty Urgent Care Huntingdon Valley to my friends and family!

I needed a COVID-19 Rapid Test to return to work from being out-of-state. It was hard to find a location and to also find a location where the cost was not extremely high. Liberty Urgent Care was recommended to me, and the cost was much more affordable since I was paying out-of-pocket. The person that waited on me was pleasant and courteous and the test was done very timely, just waiting a short time for the person in front of me. I also requested that my results be emailed to me, and they were sent within an hour. I was very impressed!

Everything was great from the moment I went in. The front desk staff got me checked in and into a room immediately. Once I was seated in the room Brittany came in to check my vitals clean my cut and check everything, she was fantastic from start to finish. Dr Jenkins came in and was professional with an amazing bedside manner from the start and my stitches look great! Thank you to everyone there for making my first experience with Liberty Urgent Care so great!

Walked in and had to wait about 45 minutes to see someone but it was a Saturday and height of flu season. Everyone was so friendly and the dr really listened to me. I’ve been to other urgent cares and they always seem to misdiagnose my issue because they aren’t listening. I will definitely use them again if I need urgent care!

Had a Tele-visit with Dr Tweedy…was rather punctual knowing how busy they must be with COVID on the rise again. He listened very a tentatively and discussed possible options and causes as well as all next steps. Had to visit for test right afterwards and Ashley (I think that was her name…I asked but forgot, sorry) did my test. Was very nice and her instructions were complete and helpful. Def my Urgent Care of choice! Thanks all to making it an easy experience and a great one.

I sis ally love liberty, went today and there was a long wait, some staff are rushed and not so friendly in addition to not giving the attention that is needed at the visit. I am sure there is a reason for the change today. Please don’t let this place slide into being like all the other urgent cares. Liberty had always been different with friendly staff and drs that care. We recommend it to everyone. Stressed out employees don’t make for good care takers.

I was uptight going there as I needed to take a Covid test. The nurse that administered the test along with the PA were very professional and did not rush me as I had a few questions that I needed answered. Also, the girl at the desk who checked me in was a very pleasant young girl! Thank you Pediatric Urgent Care

I was feeling really sick when I was seen. They were very friendly, the offices were clean and the doctor and nurse very thorough. Very satisfied with AFC urgent care and will recommend 100% to others. Am grateful for the whole staff considering how not well I felt. It made a big difference in my not so lovely day... Thankful for that.

Although we waited for over an hour to be seen, the visit itself was excellent. I felt that both the nurse and the doctor were knowledgeable and friendly and welcomed questions. You can use the online appointment tool, instead of just dropping in, and that will assure you dont wait as long as I did. I would certainly return here over the other Urgent Care centers that are closer in location to me!

This was my third visit with Liberty Urgent Care, and again, I’m so pleased with the care provided by this practice. I needed to get a Covid-19 test in order to travel. Scheduling was a breeze online, wait time was quick, and Dr Tweedy was, as always, so kind and funny. The testing is done in the parking lot, so no exposure to sick people, especially if you’re just being tested for travel purposes. Results are always reliably fast, and a lab report is provided upon request. I like not having to worry about getting my results within the timeframe needed and knowing I’m receiving the same quality of care each and every visit.

I've been to this urgent care twice in the past few years. The customer service and bedside manner is exactly the same both times and how it should be for all healthcare settings. Vybe Urgent Care really seems to care about the people in our community and are making a difference in their patients' lives. I am very pleased and grateful to have vybe in my community. 🙏👏 Thank you Shamara, Ashlee, Doctor Toni M. and Kris for the great care I received.

I had a rather volatile reaction to a bug bite. I was able to show it to Dr. Tweedy who advised he felt it was probably not a deer tick bite and said why, so by the end of the conversation I'm not now worried. I appreciated the quickness with which the Liberty Urgent Care staff got back to me and appreciated their expertise and courteousness too! I will definitely recommend liberty urgent Care to my friends here.Thank you all

It was a very confusing experience. We text messages telling us to send information to the wrong phone numbers. We got people telling us there was a telemed visit after I had already talked to the doctor. And they were trying to schedule me for anybody testing when we were just getting nasal swabs. Everyone was very nice to deal with but it was a very confused situation. I'm not sure what exactly went wrong but it seemed like the information that was given didn't get into the system. We were supposed to have urgent care come out to do testing on my staff and it seemed like it was not able to handle that group. It was handling everyone individually and not coordinated at all.

This was my first time using AFC Urgent Care. And it was my first time using telemedicine. I wasn't sure what to expect, and was pleased with how easy it was to schedule and appointment and meet with a physician. The doctor was friendly and caring. He listened to my concerns and provided a solution that was right for me. I was very happy with the whole experience.

The doctors at liberty urgent care or by far the most caring understanding and educated in my opinion. I’ve never felt more comfortable with medical professionals than I do here. Their level of care is bar none and exceptional in every sense of the word. I would recommend liberty urgent care to anyone and everyone with a matter that needs to be addressed immediately.
