 The Shenandoah Valley Family Practice
Residency Program includes some time training
in one of Valley Health's 3 regional Urgent Care

Virginia and West Virginia. For patients with non-
life-threatening conditions who still require
immediate relief or care, a visit to Valley Health's

visit to the emergency room. The Residency
practice also has many urgent and acute illness
visits daily, including evening and Saturday

3. Valley Health Urgent Care
 When considering a trip to Urgent Care, consider your
symptoms. While some illnesses and physical
maladies can be treated with over-the-counter
medications or rest, on some occasions, a medical
professional can be necessary to help the patient
proceed with proper treatment. If your physician's
office is unavailable or inconvenient at that time,
Urgent Care does offer support when needed, though
it isn't a substitution for a primary care physician.
A serious cold or flu that simply won't go away, or
various sprains, cuts, and strains are good examples
of when to consider seeing your Family Physician or
Urgent Care. When at-home remedies aren't enough
to heal the issue, or when waiting for a visit with a
doctor is unreasonable, Urgent Care is open every
day to offer walk-in aid.
