WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Jan. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Exer Urgent Care opened its first clinic in West Hollywood, its 19th facility in Southern California, located at the intersection of Sunset Blvd. and Crescent Heights Blvd., just down the street from historic neighborhood, Spaulding Square. Each facility is staffed by ER doctors and medical personnel, providing convenient, affordable and high quality medical care at a fraction of the cost of an ER. With nearly 80-percent of all hospital emergency department visits not being true emergencies, Exer's mission is to become an essential part of the community, with welcoming facilities that offer more comprehensive medical services than a typical urgent care.
"Emergency rooms and hospitals were overcrowded before the pandemic, and now the strain on our medical infrastructure has been exacerbated," said Rob Mahan, CEO at Exer. "We are proud to offer West Hollywood patients a safe and convenient location to seek medical attention for everything from the common cold, x-rays, flu shots, lacerations, splinting, IV's, labs and diagnostics; to COVID-19 testing and more."
Exer Urgent Care is Southern California's fastest-growing ER alternative with on-site x-ray, IV, laceration and diagnostics. Exer recently launched an online telehealth platform, VirtualCare by Exer, which allows patients real-time access to a medical provider via video chat. Each Exer Urgent Care location now offers flu shots and COVID-19 testing with next day results. The recently launched patient portal allows access to test results as well as discharge and other health information, to those who register.
Exer West Hollywood is open seven days a week from 9AM to 9PM, with the last patient registered at 8:30PM. Exer accepts most Medicare, PPO and HMO insurance, and offers affordable payment options for those with minimal or no health insurance.
