OrthoCarolina has extended the hours of operation at its Orthopedic Urgent Care Clinic, located at 1915 Randolph Road.
Patients can now visit the clinic Monday through Friday from 5:30 to 9 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for treatment of minor orthopedic conditions such as acute pain, sports- and accident-related injuries, painful joint swelling and post-operative difficulties or problems from casts and wound dressings.
The Orthopedic Urgent Care Clinic is staffed by board-certified orthopedic surgeons, licensed orthopedic physician assistants, and a staff specially trained in orthopedic treatment.
Appointments are available, but not required. Some conditions, such as a major joint dislocation, are best treated in an emergency room.
