About us

Illnesses can strike at any time -- even when your doctor's office is closed. Hospital Emergency Departments are overwhelmed with patients and long wait times. Urgent Care meets the needs of our communities by treating minor illnesses and injuries in a more cost effective manner with less wait time, easy access and a pleasant surrounding.

Gulf Coast After Hours provides day and night walk-in care for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries such as allergic reactions, fever, rashes, sinus infections, simple burns and cuts, wound care, sprains, and simple fractures -- no appointments necessary.

Patients seen at Gulf Coast After Hours are treated and released back to their Primary Care Physician. Patients needing specialty care will be referred out for further treatment by a specialist.

Gulf Coast After Hours is Acccredited by the Urgent Care Association of America.

In order to promote continuity of care for patients, Gulf Coast Urgent Care is a Joint Venture partnership
with Ochsner Clinic Foundation working along with Ochsner Medical Center-West Bank,
which is comprised of over 300 physicians in more than 40 specialties.
