"Make no mistake - there is no sense of urgency at this emURGENTcare... I would recommend this emURGENTcare if you have an affinity for waiting rooms, have a lot of time to waste, and feel sick, but have no intention of getting better."
— LocalityBiz Review (Latham)"Every single staff member we interacted with was both incredibly kind and incredibly knowledgeable. Bringing two small kids to the doctor unexpectedly solo can feel overwhelming, and this office and staff made the experience truly wonderful."
