Emergency Physicians Medical Center

EPMC's two locations are open 8 am - 8 pm weekdays and 10 am - 4 pm Saturdays and Sundays. Most results available in 15 minutes or less.

We are fortunate to live in Alachua County which is home to Florida’s best medical facilities. While area residents benefit from excellent health care, immediate access to doctors can be challenging/difficult/frustrating. People routinely use hospital emergency departments in place of primary care physicians when they become ill. Approximately 80% of patients seen in local emergency departments do not need to be admitted to the hospital and are treated and released. EPMC fills the niche in medical care between routine urgent care centers and hospital emergency departments by providing medical care for all but the most critically ill patients in a convenient and pleasant environment. Services include

Emergency care
On-site lab
IV fluids and medication
Digital x-rays
Ultrasound
Vaccinations and immunizations
Occupational medicine
Workman’s Compensation
Wellness screenings and physical exams

Lab Tests

For your convenience EPMC is an accredited moderate complexity lab equipped to do most routine lab tests from blood work to pregnancy tests on-site. This timesaving service means that you can be seen, diagnosed and treated all in the same visit. Our comprehensive range of lab tests includes the following:

Blood glucose
PT and INR (coumadin levels)
Blood Chemistries: Electrolytes, tests for diabetes, renal and liver function tests
Complete blood count (CBC) with differential for conditions such as anemia, infection and platelet count
Cardiac enzymes to evaluate for a heart attack
TSH (Thyroid test)
Mononucleosis test
Rapid influenza
Rapid strep test
Serum and urine pregnancy tests
Toxicology screening
Urinalysis
Access to major reference labs for any additional testing

Life-threatening emergencies

While emergency departments are equipped to handle all medical problems, the best use of the ER is for truly for life-threatening conditions or when other medical offices, such as EPMC, are not open. Examples of life-threatening emergencies include:

Sudden onset of chest pain
Stroke (numbness, tingling or weakness in any part of your body)
Altered mental status
Children less than the age of 2 months with a fever higher than 100.4 degrees. If you feel you may be experiencing a true, life-threatening emergency, call 911.

Thanks so much for trusting us with your care, Amilda! Creating a positive, compassionate experience for patients is why many of our staff do the work we do. We hope you keep trusting our team for many years to come!

Sometimes, patients come into our clinic and need to go to a hospital. If you need to be admitted to the hospital from the EPMC, you can usually bypass the ER and be directly admitted.

And because we are not affiliated with local health facilities, you can choose which hospital you want to go to. Medical care on your own terms is just one of the many benefits of coming to the EPMC.

If you have a flare-up of a chronic condition, you may assume your only option for quality care is to head to the ER. But that’s not always the case! There’s another option, and it’s EPMC! As Gainesville’s only high acuity urgent care, at EPMC, our board certified Emergency Medicine physicians can treat more serious and specialized cases than a traditional urgent care center.

EPMC offers Gainesville, FL high acuity urgent care for emergency patients who don’t require hospital admission. We are a full-service, walk-in medical clinic for all ages.
