Yes, urgent care doctors accept new patients. In many cases, urgent care doctors treat patients on a walk-in basis and can provide care to new people without an appointment. In this sense, these doctors are always accepting new patients. However, some urgent care doctors take on the role of a primary care physician (as many of them have a background in primary care), treat all of a patient’s concerns as well as perform regular physicals and routine health screenings.

A new patient should ask their doctor several different questions to determine what health measures they should take and what lifestyle changes they should make to improve their health and quality of life. These may include:

• What wellness tests should I have?
• How can I eat a healthier diet?
• What is the best exercise plan?
• How often should I schedule an appointment?
• What is my risk of developing the disease?
• What are my blood sugar numbers?
• Can you explain these test results?
• What is a reliable source for information?
• I am concerned about my health. What precautions should I take? How worried should I be?
• How does family history affect my health?

Finding a new doctor can be a challenge, but certain steps can streamline the process. First, the most important thing to consider is the doctor’s qualifications; to receive the highest level of care, the doctor should have experience treating your specific condition. This is especially crucial for patients with complex chronic conditions, as these require close monitoring to maintain a good quality of life. Second, determine how important the location of the clinic is to you. If you are sick, the chances of you wanting to travel long distances are slim to none, so finding a doctor that is within a short distance is often of great importance. Third, evaluate the doctor’s communication style; do they take the time to answer all of your questions, or did you feel rushed? Did they take the time to explain your condition or treatment in a way that you could easily understand, or did they use medical terms that just raised more questions? Finally, consider the friendliness of the office staff; how you are treated when you book an appointment or check in can determine how comfortable you feel seeing the doctor.
