MedRite treats immediate conditions including minor injuries, asthma attacks, fever, flu, upper respiratory infections, earaches, nose bleeds and stomach flu. They assist with less immediate conditions like STD testings and physical exams. In addition, the center provides “virtual care.”
“It’s similar to tele-medicine but with a little more professional authority than any of your standard tele-medicine,” Dean said. “Plus we have the physical presence of being here and have the ability to do follow up care virtually. So it’s an important component for a lot of people.”
The mission of MedRite is to help people feel better while saving them time. They make it their mission to help treat people in a convenient way.
“I think we live in a world of convenience, but convenience with quality care so feeling better is the ultimate goal,” Dean said.
If someone wants immediate treatment, a physical, a flu shot or even a Covid vaccine, MedRite Urgent Care is now available for all that and more. People can learn more about their treatments, testings and hours through their website.
