• Earaches
• Minor skin infections and rashes
• Pink eye
• Sinus infections
• Sore throats
• Sprains and strains
The 2,300 square-foot facility was designed to accommodate patients with convenient hours in a centralized location.
“We understand the stress that an injury or illness not quite serious enough for the emergency department can create for families,” said Michael Ortmeier, senior director of clinic operations for Methodist Health System. “For patients in and around central Omaha, this new urgent care location helps take the guesswork out of where to turn for accessible quality care.”
Methodist Urgent Care is open Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Weekend and holiday hours are noon to 6 p.m. For more information or to make an appointment, call (402) 354-6675.
