West Palm Beach, FL, May 29, 2010 --(PR.com)-- MD NOW Urgent Care Medical Centers is among a select group of Urgent Care Centers in the State of Florida to receive national accreditation from the American Academy of Urgent Care Medicine (AAUCM). The Urgent Care Center Accreditation (UCCA) is a benchmark of quality, not only to those involved in the health care industry, but to the general public as well. The AAUCM accreditation demonstrates high levels of commitment to providing the exceptional quality medical care and symbolizes medical practice that is consistent with the ideals of the specialty of Urgent Care Medicine. MD NOW provides patients with walk-in, extended-hour medical attention with licensed providers for a large scope of medical conditions and meets all requirements of the AAUCM’s established criteria. MD NOW Urgent Care Centers also achieve certification through the Urgent Care Association of America.

The health care environment is changing and it is becoming more and more important for patients to understand their treatment options. Urgent care is a convenient and viable option for medical conditions that cannot wait for a scheduled appointment with a primary care physician. MD NOW accepts unscheduled, walk-in patients during all hours of operation.

When a medical condition cannot be handled by a patient’s regular doctor – such as unexpected cuts, burns, sprains or fractures that do not require a visit to the emergency department, MD NOW is equipped with digital x-ray, laboratory services and a licensed provider is always available to perform minor procedures like casting and suturing. Urgent care fills the gap between primary care and hospital emergency rooms by offering increased convenience and cost savings.

With its accreditation, MD NOW Medical Centers demonstrate a commitment toward providing patients with access to the highest levels of quality care.
