Appointment preparation
Before booking sick visits
You can make your visit go smoothly by jotting down the main reason you're coming in, your current medications, allergies, pharmacy, insurance plan, recent records, and any questions on your mind. If your visit follows recent urgent care, a hospital stay, specialist care, labs, imaging, or a medication change, bring those details along if you have them.
If you're traveling in from Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Dewey-Humboldt, or another nearby Yavapai County community, it helps to double-check directions, office hours, insurance details, and any forms before you head out.

Common questions
Common Questions About Sick Visits
Can I book a same-day sick visit in Prescott?
Same-day sick visit availability changes from day to day. Give us a call or use the appointment link to check current openings. If your symptoms are severe, worsening quickly, or may be an emergency, do not wait for a routine appointment or an online response.
What symptoms are appropriate for a sick visit?
Sick visits are for non-emergency symptoms or simple concerns that need a medical look. That might be illness symptoms, minor concerns, medication questions, or follow-up needs. Give us a call and we can help you decide whether an in-person visit, telemedicine, or another setting fits best.
Can a sick visit be virtual?
Sometimes, yes. Some sick visits work well over telemedicine when the concern is non-emergency and doesn't need an in-person exam. Symptoms that call for testing, a physical exam, vital signs, or urgent evaluation may need an office visit or another care setting instead.
When should I call 911 instead?
For emergency symptoms, call 911. Emergency symptoms may include chest pain, stroke symptoms, severe breathing trouble, major injury, severe allergic reaction, confusion, fainting, or any severe or rapidly worsening condition. Do not use routine scheduling or contact forms for possible emergencies.
