Our team treats a wide range of non-emergency pediatric problems:

Common Illnesses We Treat

Pediatric Injuries & Orthopedic Care

Kids are active — and injuries happen. ECUC combines urgent care + orthopedic expertise so your child gets better evaluation than a typical walk-in clinic.

We treat:

  • Sprains & strains

  • Minor fractures & growth plate injuries

  • Bruises & contusions

  • Minor sports injuries

  • Falls & playground injuries

  • Joint pain (knee, ankle, shoulder, wrist)

We offer on-site X-rays with immediate review and diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound to limit radiation when possible, so you don’t need a separate imaging appointment.

On-Site X-Rays & Rapid Testing

Our walk-in clinic includes full diagnostic services, so you don’t need multiple trips.

X-Ray Imaging

  • Arms, legs, hands, feet

  • Ankles, knees, wrists

  • Clavicle & shoulder

  • Spine (when appropriate)

Rapid Tests

  • Flu

  • COVID

  • Strep throat

  • Urinalysis

  • Pregnancy testing (teens)

You leave with a diagnosis and treatment plan the same day.

For appropriate concerns, your child can be seen through telehealth without leaving home.
