Orthopaedic urgent care

Get the care you need with our expanded services.

If you injured a bone, muscle or joint, we’re here for you. Visit us at one of our orthopaedic urgent care* locations – no appointment necessary.

What we treat

Children and adults with injuries that occurred in the last 72 hours and don’t require ER treatment can visit orthopaedic urgent care for things including:

  • Possible breaks/fractures (excludes facial bones and ribs)
  • Dislocations
  • Sprains and strains
  • Possible muscle, tendon or ligament tears
  • Recent back pain resulting from an injury

What we do 

Our physician assistants are fully equipped to provide the best care for your injuries. Our services include:

  • Evaluating and treating injuries
  • Performing X-rays
  • Creating splints and casts
  • Scheduling follow-up appointments

Orthopaedic urgent care operates on a first-come, first-served basis, so you may have to wait to be seen by one of our physician assistants. We will then schedule follow-up care as needed.

This is a service of Geisinger Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine and is billed as a specialty visit. Some insurance companies require a referral for a specialty appointment. Check with your insurance provider to be sure.

Visit the ER for:

  • Injuries with significant bleeding or open fractures
  • Animal bites
  • Burns
  • Severe pain
  • Concern about blood clots
  • Dehydration
  • Chest pain
