I went in after work on a Saturday about 2 months ago. The receptionist was very friendly, took me back after about 5 minutes. The nurses were great. The Doctor, Tara, was very professional, kind and compassionate. I ended up having pneumonia in my left lung. I felt horrible and had a high fever. Did not know I was sick as I was. They were going to send me to the hospital automatically but I refused and signed a waiver.. I just wanted to go home. But I would like to Thank each and everyone in this office for how you treated me. You made a sick person smile and feel so much better and after a couple of weeks of antibiotics and much rest feeling completely better. Thank you all in the Berea office on Whitehorse road.. Suzanne Crawford.

I just moved here and was involved with medical professionals for 20 years. Now at 65 i am eligible for Medicare and therefore sought a new provider. I chose Prisma. I needed urgent care and went to the Verde facility. I have NEVER had better experience. As per my ratings this place is off the charts in their outstanding, caring service. Cudos to all the providers and staff. I look forward to a long and healthy relationship. Jerry Smith

The flu vaccine should generally be available at Travelers Rest-area urgent care centers, retail clinics, primary care doctor offices, and local pharmacies. While many times you can simply walk in to get a flu shot, it is best to book an appointment online to reduce your wait time.
Outside routine work hours, most Travelers Rest primary care doctor offices are closed, however, most of the area’s urgent care and retail clinics are open after hours and on weekends. Book an after hours appointment today.
Same-day and next day appointments for flu shots are bookable directly through Solv. Simply search for a Travelers Rest-area doctor, find a provider, and book a time that aligns with your schedule stating “flu shot” as your reason for visit.
Everyone 6 months or older should get vaccinated for the flu every year. Influenza, or the flu, is a serious virus and infection that hospitalizes and kills thousands of people annually. And it is constantly changing. The flu vaccine is the best way to protect yourself and your family from contracting the virus.
Flu vaccines are needed annually, primarily for two reasons. First, the flu virus is constantly evolving, meaning the virus you received a vaccine for last year is unique from the virus in the upcoming season. As such, the vaccine itself needs to be different. Second, the vaccine itself wears off and your immune system’s response to the flu virus decreases over time. Unless you receive the vaccine every year, you will lack necessary immunity.
Each year is a little different, but flu season generally starts as early as September. Getting a flu shot early in the season - August to October - gives your buddy the best opportunity to build up immunity to the virus as it does take roughly two weeks for the vaccine to protect you against infection. Of course, if you are unable to get the flu shot early, getting a flu shot later still helps as the virus could last through May.
Each year, the CDC and other organizations conduct studies to determine the effectiveness of the flu vaccine against that years flu virus. According to the CDC, recent studies show that flu vaccination reduces the risk of flu illness by between 40% and 60%. Of course, there are multiple types and strands of the flu virus including influenza B and influenza A(H1N1), as well as influenza A(H3N2). Generally speaking, flu shots tend to work better against influenza types A & B.
The flu vaccine lasts for one flu season as the virus constantly evolves and each year the vaccine is produced to specifically protect against the strand(s) that are prevalent in the upcoming flu season.
Depending on where you get your flu vaccine, what type of vaccine you are getting, and whether or not you are insured, flu shot costs vary. Generally speaking, however, flu shots can cost between $0 and $50, sometimes more.
