UNC Urgent Care 24/7 Patient Story

After being sick for five days, I knew I needed to speak with a doctor. My primary care provider had changed practices, and her replacement didn’t have an opening for over a week. But I definitely needed an appointment sooner than that. 

I remembered hearing about UNC Urgent Care 24/7. I visited the website, and it was very easy to set up an account. It took less than five minutes to get enrolled and to schedule an appointment. I then spoke with a doctor, who prescribed me an antibiotic. I began taking the medicine and started feeling better the next day.

I think UNC Urgent Care 24/7 is a great resource for the community. I signed up, made an appointment, and had a call in 30 minutes. It’s nice to have this opportunity to quickly speak with an expert so easily.

About UNC Urgent Care 24/7 

UNC Urgent Care 24/7 has been made possible through a partnership between UNC Health Care and MDLive. You can speak to doctors about a range of non-life-threatening illnesses, such as a rash, sore throat, pink eye, or cough. The cost of an appointment depends on your insurance; it is usually $49 or less for an appointment. If you need any medicines, then the doctor will send the prescription request to your pharmacy.
