Had to go in today for a COVID test. We arrived early so wait to get in was relatively quick (under an hour). The test takes about 15 minutes for results. Staff was great - did standard test of vitals.

This is my doctor for the last 24 years. She built and opened this urgent care years ago and ran it well, alone. She has decided to sell, and move to the new Sparrow (previously Hayes Green Beach Hospital in Charlotte, Mi). If you were not a regular patient of hers then you did not get a letter in the mail about it. See you there Dr!

I was a bit skeptical of going to Hurley Urgent Care as the few times I have had experience with the Emergency Room at Hurley, NONE of them were positive. However, I can wholeheartedly say the on site Urgent Care Clinic is AMAZING for children and adults. We have been in and out in under an hour from anything from strep throat to a needing stitches in a foot. We highly recommend this Urgent Care facility!
