Cough that won’t quit? Trouble breathing? Chest discomfort you can’t explain? 😮‍💨

During sick season, these symptoms can be caused by anything from pneumonia to bronchitis, and guessing isn’t your best option. 🫁

🩻 Chest X-rays allow our providers to:
• Check for pneumonia and bronchitis
• Spot lung inflammation or fluid
• Rule out more serious conditions
• Guide the right treatment plan faster

When you’re feeling miserable, the last thing you need is an unnecessary ER visit or a long wait. AFC is open 7 days a week with on-site chest X-rays, so you can get answers quickly.

Walk in whenever you need us. No appointment needed!

Norovirus is making its rounds, and it’s one of the easiest stomach bugs to catch.

Just a tiny amount of the virus can spread through food, water, surfaces, or close contact, which is why outbreaks happen so quickly.

Most people recover at home, but dehydration can become serious fast, especially for kids, older adults, and anyone with weakened immunity.

If symptoms are severe, persistent, or you’re struggling to stay hydrated, AFC is here to help.

Walk in for prompt care. No appointment needed!
Stay safe, stay hydrated, and keep an eye out for early symptoms. Protect yourself and your family this season!

Pushing through symptoms might seem easier than stopping for care, until it isn’t.

If NyQuil and Tylenol aren’t helping, it’s time to get clarity instead of coping.

Walk into AFC for personalized testing and treatment that helps you recover faster, not just mask symptoms.

You deserve to feel better, not just get by.

Nagging cough that just won’t quit? 🤧

This time of year, several respiratory illnesses can cause lingering symptoms, and knowing which one you’re dealing with matters.

Common illnesses we’re seeing include:
• Bronchitis – inflammation that leads to a deep, persistent cough
• Pneumonia – infection in the lungs that can cause fever, chest pain, and shortness of breath
• Whooping Cough (Pertussis) – severe coughing fits that make it hard to breathe
• RSV – especially tough on young children and older adults, often causing wheezing and heavy congestion

At AFC, we’re equipped to evaluate and treat the most stubborn coughs with on-site testing, X-rays, and treatment plans tailored to your symptoms. 🩺

We’re also here for your whole family, treating even infants 6 months and older.
Walk in any day of the week for fast, reliable care and some much-needed relief.
