Franciscan ExpressCare locations in Hobart and Portage now have expanded in-person hours and virtual visits for patients with non-life-threatening illnesses and conditions seeking urgent care.
Both locations are now open for walk-in visits from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, with virtual visits available by appointment on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on weekends from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Franciscan ExpressCare urgent care locations provide convenient treatment for patients who need immediate care, but do not require a trip to the emergency room. Urgent care clinics are typically faster and less expensive than an emergency room visit. No appointment is needed for in-person visits and most insurance plans are accepted.
