Not all illnesses and injuries are life-threatening, and
an emergency center is not the only option for care.
Urgent care centers are more appropriate for minor
health concerns.
Urgent care centers are designed to provide
immediate, nonemergency treatment for conditions
including:
Allergic reactions (non life-threatening)
Animal bites
Broken bones
Coughs, colds and sore throats
Ear infections
Mild asthma
Rashes and skin irritations
Navicent Health now offers Virtual Visit, a secure option
allowing patients to connect directly to board-certified
doctors 24/7, using a mobile device or computer. Virtual
Visit is designed as an on-demand service, with no need
to make an appointment. Those in need of care can
connect with a doctor by visiting
wm.navicenthealth.org/virtual-visit.html.
Virtual Visit is appropriate for conditions that would
typically be treated in an urgent care center or doctor's
office and should not be used for life-threatening
emergency conditions. In the event of an emergency,
always call 911 or visit an emergency center.
Navicent Health offers three urgent care locations in
Macon:
Gray Highway
Riverside Drive
Zebulon Road
Patients seeking urgent care may use Express Visit, an
online self-scheduling tool that allows patients to
check in for an estimated treatment time. Visit
wm.navicenthealth.org/online-scheduling.html
Navicent Health is taking precautions to minimize exposure to
COVID-19, including screening patients upon arrival and
immediately isolating those with COVID-19 symptoms, limiting
visitors, requiring all individuals on campuses to wear masks and
taking measures to sanitize waiting and care areas.
