Fit me in right away.

I needed urgent travel vaccinations and Highland Family Medicine fit me in right away. They didn’t just give the shots and send me on my way. They actually explained everything I needed to know in clear terms. After this experience, I might just join the practice as a new patient!

Dr. Nick and his team at Highland Urgent Care are brilliant. Dr. Nick truly cares about his patients and their outcomes. He has a rare skill set comprised of a deep knowledge of medicine, the ability to think outside the box, and the tenacity to dig down to the root of the issue until it’s resolved. I simply can’t recommend them enough!
