It took me time to share my experience as I lack words adequately strong to convey my satisfaction. The professionalism of every staff on duty was unrivaled. From the front desk staff to the doctor. I stepped into the venue crying due to the excruciating pain in my injured finger, but shortly, I found me smiling and joking due to the effect of the immediate care that I received. I felt like I have known every staff for years. The accident I had badly ripped my finger flesh apart. By the time the doctor was done with the stitches, it was certain that my finger will heal neatly. The doctor is very confident, brilliant and I observed that he likes what he does for a living. I asked for the scope of their practice and was informed that they provide care beyond emergencies, including flu, COVID, physical, check up etc.
I had a call after about 2.5hrs, asking my relief status.
I am 100% satisfied with the care that was provided to me. I will always patronize Urgent Care Plus and Wellness as needed.
I recommend them with my full chest.
My prayers for them include unrivaled success.
Common Eye Concerns We Address
Eye irritation can stem from a variety of causes. At Urgent Care Plus & Wellness, we treat:
- Viral conjunctivitis (commonly known as pink eye)
- Bacterial conjunctivitis, often seen in both children and adults
- Allergic conjunctivitis triggered by pollen, dust, or other allergens
- Foreign body in the eye (e.g., dirt, metal, lashes, or debris)
- Subconjunctival hemorrhage (blood in the white of the eye)
- Styes and chalazions
- Eye redness, tearing, swelling, and itchiness
- Chemical exposure or mild irritants
If you wear contact lenses or have a history of eye conditions, it’s even more important to seek timely care for any irritation or discharge to avoid complications.
Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye): What You Need to Know
Conjunctivitis refers to inflammation of the conjunctiva–the thin membrane covering the white of your eye. It can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or allergens, and is highly contagious in many cases.
Symptoms include:
- Redness in one or both eyes
- Tearing or discharge (watery or thick)
- Gritty sensation or eye discomfort
- Crusting of the eyelids, especially in the morning
- Sensitivity to light or blurred vision
Our team will determine the cause and recommend proper treatment, whether it’s antibiotic eye drops, lubricating tears, or antihistamines. Infections can resolve quickly with proper care, and we’ll advise you on how to prevent spreading it to others.
Eye Foreign Body Removal
Small particles in the eye can cause immediate irritation, pain, and risk of infection if not properly addressed. Dr. Luke uses sterile technique and magnification to gently remove the object and assess for corneal injury. You may be prescribed antibiotic drops or ointment, along with lubricating eye drops to support healing and comfort.
