I had to visit this facility yesterday and was seen by Pete Baker, PA-C. He was so nice and made me feel very comfortable. He took his time and listened to my concerns. I would highly recommend him. I found the facility very clean also. M.Rich

I was recently vacationing in Florida when I fell and broke my arm. At the time, I thought it was sprained so I searched for an Urgent Care facility. Doctor4UClinic had good reviews so I thought I would give it a shot. Although I did have to wait an extremely long time, Dr. Dalzell truly went above and beyond making me feel at ease when I discovered the arm was actually broken. She took the time to consult with an Ortho after hours to ensure it would be ok for me to fly home. She also went out of her way by calling me with the ok to fly as well as leaving her personal cell phone for me to contact her with any questions. The staff was very courteous and super friendly. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone, and am extremely thankful to have found it.
