Express care is for non-emergency concerns
Express care can be a practical option for certain non-emergency questions when a clinician can assess whether telehealth or an in-person visit is appropriate. It is not a substitute for emergency evaluation.
When in doubt, choose safety. If symptoms are severe, rapidly worsening, or concerning to you, seek urgent in-person help rather than waiting for an online visit.
Call 911 for emergency warning signs
Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room for a medical emergency. Examples can include trouble breathing, chest pain or pressure, severe bleeding, loss of consciousness, new confusion, or another potentially life-threatening concern.
This is not a complete list. Emergency services are the right choice when a condition could become life-threatening or requires immediate equipment or care.
Before you book an express-care visit
Have the practical details ready so the practice can help direct you appropriately.
- Your current symptoms and when they started
- Current medications, allergies, and relevant recent care
- Your physical location at the time of a telehealth visit
- Whether symptoms are getting worse or include an emergency warning sign
Corva Medical does not provide emergency care. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For a non-urgent question, contact the practice or book a visit to discuss care that may fit your situation.
