Company Description
Exer Urgent Care is an innovative healthcare provider with a platform built for growth. We are transforming the urgent care industry with an ER physician-staffed clinical model and a retail inspired online/offline treatment experience. Each Exer facility has an on-site ER doctor, a nurse, X-Ray and IV capability, licensed lab with a broad array of test results available within minutes, plus a dispensing pharmacy. Exer offers more comprehensive medical services than a traditional walk-in urgent care…all for the cost of an office visit copay. From coughs and colds to bumps and bruises, as well as broken bones and lacerations, we can handle it. If you need an ambulance, call 911 – for everything else, come to Exer.
