We are proud to provide treatment for work injuries to our Portland residents. We have exceptional service and experience treating a range of work-related injuries, such as cuts, sprains, strains, and fractures.
Portland Urgent Care has the equipment and specialists on-hand to run diagnostic services, such as X-rays, to assess the extent of the injury. Urgent care facilities can provide immediate care for non-life-threatening injuries, and they are often open outside of regular business hours, making it easier for individuals to receive prompt treatment.
We can provide documentation and referrals to other healthcare professionals, as needed, to support a workers' compensation claim. However, it's always best to check with your employer or workers' compensation insurance provider to confirm that urgent care treatment is covered under your plan.

I Felt That I Got the Best Care I Deserved
"From the moment I stepped into this clinic, I felt I was in very capable hands. From the front staff to my medical provider, I feel like I am getting the care that I need and deserve. Dr. Nas not only listened to my concerns but she was also engaged in our conversations. She was very knowledgeable in her field and I felt that I got the best care I deserved. I would highly recommend Portland Urgent Care. 27 years in the medical field and this was my first worker’s comp injury and it’s very frustrating because I was hurt by a third party. I had no idea what steps needed to be taken and they have helped me thoroughly in scheduling all necessary appointments. From the front staff, CMA’s, and my doctor, I felt that I received the quality of care that I deserved to recover from my injury."

If you are hurt or injured on the job, you need to see a medical professional to help diagnose your injury and establish a treatment plan. You may need physical medicine to help you in your recovery. Here's a general overview of what happens in such situations:
Fractures and Dislocations: Broken bones or dislocated joints need immediate attention to prevent further damage and facilitate proper healing.
Deep Cuts and Lacerations: Severe cuts that are bleeding heavily or that expose underlying tissues may require stitches or sutures to minimize scarring and infection risk.

Eye Injuries: Injuries to the eye, including foreign objects embedded in the eye or chemical exposures, can cause permanent damage if not treated quickly.
Burns: Severe burns or burns on the face, hands, feet, or genitalia should be treated urgently to prevent infection and minimize scarring.
Electrical or Chemical Exposure: Workers exposed to electricity or hazardous chemicals should seek immediate evaluation, as these exposures can have delayed health effects.
Back Injuries: Serious back injuries, especially those causing loss of sensation or motor function, require immediate attention to prevent permanent damage.
Crush Injuries: Injuries resulting from heavy objects or machinery accidents should be evaluated urgently for internal injuries.
Falls from Heights: Falls from elevated surfaces, such as ladders or scaffolding, can lead to severe injuries like fractures or spinal injuries.
Heat-Related Illnesses: Workers experiencing symptoms of heat exhaustion or heatstroke should seek immediate medical care to prevent life-threatening complications.
