Grand Opening of Premier Care of Commack

If you've ever been sick and unable to see your primary care physician, then you know how painful it is waiting in the emergency room for hours. Premier Care of Commack Urgent Care center provides a better solution.


Many people are unfamiliar with what urgent care is exactly. For patients on their way to the emergency room or doctor's office with an illness of moderate severity, Premier Care provides an alternative to the emergency room and access to care when their doctor is unavailable. Premier Care physicians are board-certified in emergency medicine and are the physicians you would see in the emergency department, but by practicing in the urgent care setting, allow patients access to a kinder, gentler way to receive emergency care. Premier Care Urgent Care is equipped with on-site digital x-ray, a laboratory that can provide rapid testing for various illnesses, such as the flu or strep throat, and equipment needed to treat common orthopedic injuries as well as wounds requiring stitches. Premier Care doctors can see patients of all ages, from pediatric to adult to geriatric. Premier Care refers patients back to their primary care providers to maintain the continuity of care.


Premier Care is open Monday-Friday 9a-9p, and Saturday and Sunday 9a-5p. For more information visit www.premiercaredoc.com or call 855-NICE-DOC.
