Kaua‘i Urgent offers online self-scheduling

Kaua‘i Urgent Care is now offering online self-scheduling.

Through the new system, patients can secure a time slot up to 24 hours in advance at the clinic, located at 4484 Paheʻe St. in Līhuʻe.

Walk-ins are still welcome. Reserved times are approximate and wait times may vary.

“Offering online self-scheduling will make it easier and more convenient for both residents and visitors to access Kaua‘i Urgent Care,” said Jen Chahanovich, president and CEO of Wilcox Medical Center and CEO of Kaua‘i Medical Clinic.

The clinic medical staff can treat most conditions and illnesses that are not life-threatening, including:

• COVID-19, colds, fever or flu.
• Sprains and strains.
• Cuts, scrapes and burns.
• Eye, ear, sinus, skin or urinary tract infections.
• Allergies.
• Strep throat.
• Sports-related injuries.
• Minor broken bones.

Kaua‘i Urgent Care also offers various imaging and laboratory services on-site. The clinic is staffed with board-certified emergency medicine physicians. It is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Urgent care clinics are ideal for situations when a patient’s primary care physician is unavailable. Patients are reminded that an urgent care clinic is not the same as an emergency department, which treats life-threatening illnesses and conditions such as stroke, heart attack and severe injuries. For emergencies, Wilcox Medical Center’s Emergency Department is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
