When do you need orthopaedic urgent care?

An orthopaedic urgent care clinic is for patients with orthopaedic injuries or conditions that require immediate medical treatment but are not life-threatening, such as a sprained ankle. Patients who are 4 years old and above can receive expert care from an orthopaedic provider in a timely, convenient setting, including free parking.

MUSC Health Orthopaedic Urgent Care is designed exclusively to treat various orthopaedic injuries, including broken bones, closed fractures, sports-related injuries, sprains and strains, minor dislocations, lacerations, cuts, and swollen joints.

Our doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants are proficiently trained in orthopaedics and sports medicine to provide patients with a full spectrum of orthopaedic services.
