Cottage Health has opened its second Cottage Urgent Care Center in the Ventura area, this one at Ventura Poinsettia Plaza, 4360 E. Main St.
Because access to care is a priority in preventing a minor health issue from becoming more serious, the goal of the new Urgent Care Center is to provide complete care within 45 minutes. The center is available 8 a.m.-8 p.m., 365 days a year.
Cottage providers staffing the Urgent Care Center include a licensed nurse practitioner, a radiology technician, and clinical concierges. Patients at Cottage Urgent Care Ventura Poinsettia Plaza will find modern and comfortable amenities.
Conditions treated include scrapes and minor cuts, minor burns, sprains, allergies, earache, urinary tract infection, skin conditions, rash, poison oak, cold and flu symptoms, and other minor ailments and injuries.
Patients requiring attention for more serious medical conditions may be referred to a local emergency department or physician.
Available services onsite include X-rays and point-of-care lab services. The center also offers physical exams for student sports participation. Walk-ins are welcome and online appointments are available.
