The holiday season brings joy, but it can also bring accidents and illnesses. From minor burns while baking cookies and decorating mishaps to other common holiday injuries and the inevitable cold and flu, Lakeland Regional Health’s urgent care centers are ready to help.

With three convenient locations, expert providers, and a new clinic opening in December, LRH makes it easy to get care when it’s needed most.

🏥 Why choose Urgent Care?

“Urgent care is a convenient place to be seen for minor illnesses and injuries. We’re here to offer quick relief — no appointment needed,” David Remmer, MD said.

It’s designed for non-emergency concerns, such as:

  • Cold and flu symptoms
  • Sprains, strains, and minor injuries
  • Sinus infections and seasonal allergies
  • Minor burns and cuts
  • Diagnostic testing for respiratory illnesses

🏥 What to know before you go

  • Walk-in care: No appointment needed
  • Hours: Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Saturday-Sunday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • All locations care for patients ages 2 and up.

🏥 More than just urgent care

LRH urgent care offers more than just immediate care — it’s the first step toward long-term health. Patients can easily connect with a primary care provider and have access to a variety of on-site services available during the week.

  • PCP referrals: Establish a relationship with a primary care provider during your visit to gain access to LRH’s comprehensive network of specialists. Psst... There are options for what kind of primary care provider you can see.
  • On-site services: Sports physicals, X-rays, lab services, and diagnostic tests are available on weekdays.

📍 More locations coming soon

On Dec. 9, Lakeland Regional Health will open a new Urgent Care center, Lake Gibson (930 Marcum Rd.), expanding Swan City’s access to fast, reliable care across the region — and even more urgent care locations are coming soon.

Plus, there’s an LRH freestanding emergency department coming to the area in early 2025 (in South Lakeland), providing greater access to award-winning emergency care.

Don’t let holiday mishaps dampen your season. Visit one of LRH’s Urgent Care locations and get back to celebrating.
