Discussion

Urgent care centers are often open all hours, but may not be as fully equipped (or staffed) to provide the sort of emergency medicine that a fully-equipped hospital can provide. While a general- or nurse-practitioner can provide routine care, they will consult with specialists when expertise is needed in a specific area.

Various kinds of pregnancy centers can provide counseling and perhaps some medical services for planned or unplanned pregnancies.
