CareNow® Urgent Care offers discounted sports physicals

Dallas, Texas — CareNow^® Urgent Care is offering discounted sports physicals for K-12 students for $35 through August 31. This offer is designed to help families plan for fall sports activities for school-aged students by allowing them to take advantage of CareNow’s extended and weekend hours.

Sports physicals are often required for student athletes, as well as marching band and color guard members. Parents and students are encouraged to check school guidelines for pre-participation requirements prior to training camps and summer practices.

Things to bring before the appointment:

• Bring all necessary forms and vaccination records.
• Bring any glasses or contacts (if worn), and medications the student takes regularly.
• Students under age 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
• EKGs are not included in the promotional price.

The most common injuries in youth sports are sprains, strains, bruises, growth plate injuries, repetition motion injuries and heat-related illness. In addition to getting a physical, doctors recommend healthy diet, regular exercise, staying hydrated and avoiding playing through pain.

With over 225 accredited urgent care clinics located throughout the United States, CareNow Urgent Care offers extended hours seven days a week with convenient Web Check-In® to provide time-effective and high-quality care close to home.
