What Services Are Provided for a Walk-In Visit?

You twisted your ankle during your morning jog, and now you can’t bear weight on your foot. Or maybe your child fell off the playground equipment, and now their wrist is painful and swollen. 

These situations demand prompt medical attention, but what should you do if they're not severe enough to warrant an expensive emergency room visit?

You need something between your primary care doctor's scheduled appointments and the ER — and that's exactly what Full Orthopedics Urgent Care in North Miami Beach, Florida, provides. 

We offer walk-in visits for orthopedic injuries seven days a week, and here’s what you can expect when you come to our clinic.

How urgent care walk-in visits work

A walk-in visit means you don’t need to make an appointment to get the care you need. Accidents happen unexpectedly, and at Full Orthopedics Urgent Care, you don’t need to call ahead or wait days for an appointment.

This convenience is especially valuable when injuries happen on weekends and at other times when your primary care doctor's office is closed. Just come to our clinic to get seen as soon as possible — not when an appointment becomes available days or weeks later.

Comprehensive orthopedic services under one roof

Full Orthopedics Urgent Care provides a full range of services focused on bone, joint, muscle, and soft-tissue injuries. When you walk in with an injury, you receive specialized orthopedic care from professionals who understand musculoskeletal injuries and how to treat them effectively.

Advanced orthopedic diagnostics

Your visit starts with a comprehensive physical examination to diagnose your injury. We take your vitals, ask questions about your medical history, review your symptoms, and learn how your injury happened. 

We may be able to diagnose your condition after your physical, but sometimes we need additional tests to confirm the diagnosis.

On-site X-ray imaging

You don't need to go to a separate imaging center and wait for results to be sent to another provider. We do X-rays right here in our facility, so our medical team can immediately evaluate your images and determine whether you have a fracture, dislocation, or other type of injury.

This streamlined approach means you get your diagnosis and treatment plan in a single visit, rather than being sent elsewhere and waiting days for follow-up.

Suturing for lacerations

When you get a cut that's too deep or too long to heal properly on its own, you need professional wound closure. We provide suturing services to close your laceration, minimize scarring, and reduce your risk of infection.

Our team cleans and examines your wound, applies local anesthesia to keep you comfortable, and carefully sutures the edges together for optimal healing. You also receive instructions on wound care and when to return for suture removal if necessary.

Splints, braces, and casts

If you've fractured a bone or severely sprained a joint, you need proper immobilization to heal correctly and avoid further damage.

We can apply splints or braces for initial stabilization, providing support while allowing for swelling that often occurs in the first few days after injury. For fractures that require longer-term immobilization, we use casts to keep your bone aligned throughout the healing process.

Our team ensures your splint, brace, or cast fits correctly — tight enough to provide stability but not so tight that it cuts off circulation or causes additional problems. We teach you how to care for your cast, what warning signs to watch for, and when to return for follow-up care.

Treatment for other common orthopedic injuries

Beyond these common services, we diagnose and treat a wide range of orthopedic conditions, including dislocations, tendonitis, muscle tears, sports injuries, work-related injuries, and joint pain.

We provide pain management, prescribe medications when appropriate, offer referrals to orthopedic specialists for complex cases requiring surgery, and create follow-up care plans to ensure your injury heals properly.

With walk-in visits at Full Orthopedics Urgent Care, you benefit from specialized orthopedic expertise rather than general urgent care. Our focus on musculoskeletal injuries means we have the specific knowledge, equipment, and experience to properly diagnose and treat your orthopedic problem, all in a single visit.

Don't let an orthopedic injury go untreated or spend hours waiting in the emergency room. Walk into our clinic any day of the week and get the prompt, specialized care you need.

Appointments are never required, but you can always contact us online or call us at 305-343-1365 to let us know you’re on your way.
