Doesn’t it always seem like you or your children get sick after typical doctors office hours? There is nothing worse than a Saturday morning cough or that Sunday afternoon fever that you aren’t sure if your child should wait to be seen by a medical professional. I always feel like going to the Emergency Room is extreme which is why I love having the option to go to my CVS MinuteClinic.
Wether you or your children are experiencing a sore throat or even just wanting to update your vaccinations (flu, pneumonia, pertussis, and hepatitis to name a few) the CVS MinuteClinic is your one stop quick diagnosis and treatment shop for many ailments. I love being able to get myself and children diagnosed and when needed our medications filled conveniently and quickly so we can start feeling better.
I was pleasantly surprised at our last visit when we discovered that MinuteClinic also offers some really great health and wellness programs that I am definitely going to be taking advantage of this year. I’m on a mission to change my overall health which includes losing some weight. CVS MinuteClinic now offers smoking cessation and weight loss programs to help you (and me!) get healthy and stay healthy!
