If you are not sure what to do, and you don't have one of the serious conditions listed above, call your health care provider. If the office is not open, your phone call may be forwarded to a nurse or other provider who is on call for the clinic. Describe your symptoms to the provider who answers your call, and find out what you should do.
Your provider or health insurance company may also offer a nurse telephone advice hotline. Call this number and tell the nurse your symptoms and ask for advice on what to do.
If you don’t have a health care provider or health insurance, call one of the following sliding fee scale clinics and ask for an appointment.
List Compass, Clarity and Spectrum here the same way as it is listed under the Sliding Scale Clinics tab under the Health Care Services tab. For the Sliding Scale Clinics, please list Spectrum last.
