You all know how it is — one minute you’re dropping the kids off to school and rushing to work, and the next you’re getting that dreaded call from the nurse, or your little one, that they took a tumble on the playground or their stomach isn’t acting right. Worse yet, you hear the dreaded “Mom!” cry for help in the middle of the night when your child has suddenly woken up with flu symptoms.
As moms, our schedules are already packed, and adding a last-minute doctor’s visit can feel impossible. That’s why we’ve been so impressed with UF Health Emergency & Urgent Care Centers. With emergency and urgent care services under one roof, available 24/7, they have been able to handle life’s surprises like a fever, broken bones, and sprains in a quick, convenient way.
