NEW ORLEANS — The Urgent Care is celebrating 22 years of serving the Greater New Orleans community. Since opening in 2004, The Urgent Care has grown to five locations in Mid-City, Uptown, Gretna, Harvey, and LaPlace and has had the privilege of caring for over one million patients throughout the region and beyond.
For 22 years, The Urgent Care has remained committed to one simple promise: Here when you need us.
From everyday illnesses and injuries to routine healthcare needs, The Urgent Care has served patients through both ordinary days and extraordinary circumstances. From Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Ida to the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, the organization has remained part of a resilient community through times of uncertainty and change.
As The Urgent Care celebrates this milestone, the anniversary is about more than the number of years it has been in business. It is about the patients, families, team members, and communities who have made those years meaningful.
“For 22 years, our patients have trusted us with their care, and we are incredibly grateful for that trust,” said Dr. Douglas Mehaffie, Medical Director and Practicing Physician. “We have had the honor of serving this community through both ordinary days and extraordinary circumstances. To every patient who has chosen The Urgent Care, thank you for trusting us and allowing us to be part of your healthcare journey. We would not be here without you.”
From its beginnings in 2004 to its five locations today, The Urgent Care has continued to grow alongside the communities it serves while remaining focused on providing quick, convenient, and compassionate care when patients need it most. After 22 years, The Urgent Care remains grateful for the opportunity to serve the Greater New Orleans community and proud to continue its promise to be Here when you need us.
