When you go to an urgent care it is a total crapshoot. I've seen some of the worst doctors ever there. One literally looked at my throat for 5 seconds, said I had strep, and went back to playing on his phone, they weren't busy I was the only person in there.
I've had other misread tests for my kids, saying they had strep when they had RSV. But some urgent care doctors have been really good. I think the ratio is changing in the wrong direction though.
Wait till they are all replaced by midlevel NP and PAs like is currently happening in hospitals everywhere. The quality of care is going to be even more fractured by their lack of education to med school trained docs.
