ALISO VIEJO, Calif., November 3, 2015 — Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian announced today that Hoag Urgent Care Aliso Viejo opened November 1.
Managed by Hoag Medical Group, Hoag Urgent Care Aliso Viejo will operate 363 days a year, seven days a week, on evenings and weekends offering added convenience for treating urgent or unexpected conditions, ranging from the common cold and coughs, to cuts, lacerations and broken bones.
Hoag Urgent Care also provides scheduled primary care appointments. By combining primary and urgent care in one location, patients benefit because medical records are immediately available, instantly updated, and the need to follow-up with a primary care physician may be reduced, providing more convenient care for patients.
“We understand that some medical conditions simply can’t wait until your primary care physician can see you, and many medical situations do not require an emergency room visit or the associated wait time and expense,” said Corinne Hsu Giesemann, M.D., Hoag Medical Group. “Hoag Urgent Care provides the Aliso Viejo community with convenient access to high-quality medical care in the evenings and on weekends to serve the needs of busy families in our community.”
Hoag Urgent Care Aliso Viejo is Hoag’s eighth urgent care facility in Orange County, joining locations in Anaheim Hills, Huntington Beach, Huntington Harbour, Irvine – Woodbridge, Irvine – Woodbury, Newport Beach and Tustin. Next year, Hoag will open new urgent care locations in Hoag Health Center Irvine – Sand Canyon and Los Olivos Shopping Center in Irvine.
Hoag Medical Group and Urgent Care Aliso Viejo is located inside the Hoag Health Center at 26671 Aliso Creek Road, Aliso Viejo, adjacent to Edwards Cinema at Aliso Viejo Town Center. The urgent care is open on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and on weekends from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, please call 800-400-HOAG (4624).
