Immediate Care Centers
Our Immediate Care Centers provide exactly what their name implies: prompt
medical treatment for injuries and illnesses that don't involve serious
medical emergencies.
There are three convenient locations:
Glynn Immediate Care Center,
Glynco Immediate Care Center and
St. Simons Immediate Care Center.
Minor Injuries and Illnesses We Treat:
-
Minor injuries, like sprains, cuts, burns, bee stings, sunburns, and foreign objects
in the eye-and all of life's bumps, bruises, and pains that aren't
life-threatening but need prompt attention
-
Minor illnesses and their symptoms, like cold and flu, respiratory infections, urinary
tract infections, fever, sore throat, ear ache, upset stomach, and allergies
We also offer:
-
On-site diagnostics, including imaging and laboratory services, to expedite patient treatment
-
Occupational medicine, including employer screenings and routine physical examinations
Caring, Expert Medical Staff
Our Immediate Care Centers are staffed by providers trained in urgent care,
internal medicine and family medicine. They are supported by nurses, imaging
technologists, and medical assistants who pride themselves on providing
efficient, personable service-which goes a long way when you're under
the weather.
When Should I Visit an Immediate Care Center?
In many cases, our Immediate Care Centers are faster and less expensive
than an emergency room. It's important to know when they're most
appropriate, and when you truly need emergency care.
If you need urgent medical treatment for a non-life-threatening condition
and can't see your usual primary care physician-because you don't
have one, they don't have any appointments, or it's after hours
or a holiday-an Immediate Care Center is a good choice.
If, however, you (or a family member) experience any of the following symptoms,
you should go to the nearest emergency room or call 911:
- Chest pain
- Dislocation of shoulder, hip, or knee
- High fever in an infant (101° or higher in a baby under 3 months)
- Persistent or severe bleeding
- Persistent vomiting or diarrhea
- Severe allergic reaction
- Stroke symptoms, like weakness on one side of your body, difficulty speaking
and understanding, and loss of consciousness
- Sudden, severe abdominal pain
Holiday Hours
In observance of the upcoming holidays, our Immediate Care Centers will
have modified hours during specified days and times.

A Half Century of Practing Medicine
Healthy Partners, Fall 2021
Growing up in the 1950s, James Snow, D.O., was fascinated with radios.
He built crystal and shortwave sets and strung up a long-wire antenna
at his home 25 miles south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Some nights, voices
from faraway places would fill the room. “I can remember listening
to stations in the South Pacific and Southeast Asia — Sarawak and
Fiji,” he recalls. “Of course, Australia and New Zealand would
come in regularly.” Dr. Snow has had some interesting experiences
in his 53 years as a physician...

M.D., has practiced medicine at the clinic for 20 years and has served
as its medical director for 12. When the coronavirus arrived on American
shores in early 2020, Dr. Miller and his team sprang into action.
