With the warmer weather comes summer sports, vacations, barbecues, pool parties and more! If the season also happens to bring you something less pleasant—like poison ivy or bug bites from your walk by the river, a burn from Saturday’s cookout or a sprained ankle from your sprint to go long during backyard football—you’ll need to know where to go. At Capital Region, we offer access to high-quality care, when you need it, at our quick care and urgent care locations! Keep in touch! We want to be here for you.
