September–October
Flu shot timing
The CDC says September and October are generally good times to get a flu vaccine, ideally by the end of October, for everyone 6 months and older with rare exception. Call us to ask about this season's vaccine.
Fall and winter bring flu season, sports injuries, holiday cooking accidents and travel. Elon Health Urgent Care is open seven days a week for same-day care, with on-site X-rays and on-site testing for influenza, COVID-19 and strep.
Hours: Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm, Saturday and Sunday 9am to 5pm.
Below is what we see most often this time of year, in calendar order, with a link to the page that covers each topic in detail.

Same-day visits for fever, cough, sore throat and other cold and flu symptoms, with on-site flu testing so we treat the right illness.
Fall through winter
On-site testing for influenza, COVID-19 and strep, whether you have symptoms, a known exposure or need a test for travel.
Fall sports season
Rolled ankles and jammed wrists from fall sports and weekend games. We evaluate sprains the same day, with on-site X-rays when an injury needs imaging.

Cooking, carving and decorating can mean burns, cuts and falls. Walk in for treatment of minor burns, cuts and bruises.
Winter break
Pediatric care for common illnesses, minor injuries and other non-emergency concerns while school is out.
Holiday season
Urgent care fits non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries. For severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, major trauma or severe bleeding, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
