🏥 **Who is it For?**
Our urgent care service is tailored for Priority 3 patients—those with non-life-threatening conditions that could benefit from prompt treatment to enhance comfort and healing time. This includes conditions such as skin issues, lameness, abscesses, minor wounds, sore eyes/ears, and chronic diseases.
