There are two stand-a-lone ER's, one on 466A and one on 44A. They are hospital affiliated. I have used the one on 44A, no waiting and out of there within 2 hours including lab and x-rays. Urgent care is dependent on provider but not being hospital affiliated will send you to a hospital if your situation exceeds their capabilities and the process starts over again. No longer necessary to the hospital ER plus if you don't have life threatening or serious injuries you will wait. Many go the ER for the flu and other ridiculous reasons since the ER must provide care regardless of ability to pay.
