The Ark City Clinic will be changing its operating hours to provide urgent care services for walk-in appointments to relieve strain on patients who need immediate care, according to a press release from South Central Medical Center, who runs the clinic.
Starting Monday, March 30, Ark City Clinic, 510 W. Radio Lane, will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and will have providers available to see patients. The providers will see both call-in and walk-in appointments.
Ark City Clinic will accept all insurance companies and will have options available for patients that do not have insurance.
SCKMC would like to urge the public to know the difference between Emergency Room Care and Urgent Care:
- If you or someone in your care is needing minor medical assistance such as: treatment of non-threatening allergic reactions, mild fever, animal or insect bites, or minor physical injury (cuts, sprains, strains, or broken bones) please seek care from the walk-in clinic.
- If severe or life-threatening symptoms occur, such as: high fever, severe pain in the chest or abdomen, difficulty breathing, severe burns, or signs of heart attack (tightness in the chest or arms, nausea, sudden dizziness), stroke (numbness, confusion, trouble seeing), or poisoning please contact Emergency Services and make arrangements to visit the Emergency Room.
If you have questions about the change in hours, or would like to set up and appointment, please call the clinic at 620-442-2100.
