At MD Now
Occupational Health Services, a division of MD Now Urgent
Care Centers, we know on-the-job injuries can be expensive,
time-consuming and disruptive to your business. That's why our physicians are
specially trained to get your employee back on their feet as
soon as possible through safe, effective treatment with measurable outcomes.
Corporate discounts are available.
At our
urgent care centers, we'll give your employee the
individualized medical attention they need. Our work comp
program is designed to optimize recovery and facilitate your
employee's expeditious return to the
workforce.
Avoid the
expense and inconvenience of traditional hospital-based
systems or work comp specialty companies! We can treat your
employees cheaper and more efficiently with our convenient
hours (open 12 hours a day - 7 days a week from 8am to 8pm)
and four urgent care locations throughout Palm
Beach County with two more locations coming soon. At our urgent care centers, most of our
patients are seen, treated and released in one hour or less.
Unlike other
centers, we facilitate timely and effective communication
with you or your company's case managers and we promise that
your employee will always be seen by a physician -
not a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant - to
insure that your company will be represented and prepared
with documentation from a Florida certified work comp
physician on any Workers' Compensation claim.
Call MD Now
Urgent Care Centers today and find out more information about
how we can help your business efficiently and cost effectively
treat your injured employees and get them back to work.
