Alternatives to the emergency room

If you need medical care but your situation is not a true emergency, it may be more efficient to get care from an alternative source.

Urgent/convenient care

When your situation is not a medical emergency but you want to be seen by a doctor today for an unexpected illness or injury, MD360® Convenient Care provides walk-in care for such cases. MD360’s five locations – in Greenville, Greer, Five Forks, Powdersville and Boiling Springs – offer quick access for residents across the Upstate. Mountain Lakes Family Medicine in Seneca and Fleetwood Convenient Care in Easley also offer convenient care services.

When your child needs medical attention after normal business hours or on the weekend, Prisma Health offers pediatric after-hours care in both Greenville and Spartanburg. At Children’s Hospital After-hours Care and Children’s Hospital Spartanburg Night Clinic, your child can be seen by a board-certified pediatrician and staff specially trained in pediatric medicine.

Broken bones, sprains or muscle injuries

When you need care for bone, joint or muscle injuries outside of normal business hours, Steadman Hawkins Injury & Fracture Treatment (Evening S.H.I.F.T) offers care for this type of medical need from 5:30–8 p.m. on Mondays-Thursdays and 1–4 p.m. Fridays.
