New Year, New Beginnings!

Stick to Your Goals:

 

The new year is upon us, and for many, that means lots of personal resolutions to get healthier. Eating better, exercising more, and taking care of the little things that effect our body and mind are things we should all be aware of. Build good habits this year, and remember that being healthy is a process, but the payoff is immeasurable.

 

Set goals. Make sure that you're getting regular check ups to monitor your health. Try to get at least 5-6 hours of moderate exercise per week. Make sure to disinfect your hands after going out in large crowds. Eat a well-balanced diet. And most importantly, relax. Stress can have a very negative effect on how your body feels

 

New Urgent Care in Sarasota!:

 

This year marks a new beginning for us as well. As many of you may know, we've added another location to our Urgent Care family in Sarasota. It's called Sarasota Urgent Care South, and we couldn't be more excited to expand our services in the area, with the same quality care, and connection to our community.

 

Sarasota Urgent Care South is located at 1435 South Tamiami Trail, Sarasota.  This clinic will be Dr Folkens' 4th location. Of course we will still maintain our current three clinics in Sarasota, Bradenton, and Lakewood Ranch, giving you even more options for care, with the best staff, and convenient locations.

 

Sarasota Urgent Care South is a convenient and viable option for medical conditions that cannot wait for a scheduled appointment with your primary care physician, or do not need the attention at the Emergency Room.  Dr Eric Folkens and his wife, Teri are committed to offering great care in a family centered atmosphere while providing increased convenience and cost savings 7 Days a week.  

 

We are very excited about this new addition to our Urgent Care family, and look forward to helping the community with their healthcare needs to the highest standard and convenience.
