The 3,500-square-foot location is conveniently located in Cedar Park Town Center near Costco, at Whitestone Boulevard and Toll 183A. This center will provide the same broad array of urgent care, health check, and occupational health services found at the four other Austin-area CareSpot locations: Cat Hollow, Round Rock, Southpark Meadows, and Tech Ridge. All Austin-area CareSpot centers are open seven days a week from 8am to 8pm. These locations offer care for flu, infections, migraines, sprains, cuts, bruises, burns and minor illnesses, as well as IVs, X-rays, lab tests, immunizations, physicals, and health screenings.

"A fifth location in the Austin area continues to improve on our company strategy of providing a variety of locations that are convenient and close to where people live and work. Our extended hours 7 days a week work well with families' busy lifestyles," said Paul Dickison, Vice President of Marketing for CareSpot. "Additional locations provide more convenient urgent care options for everyone in the broader region."

Patients at all CareSpot centers benefit from the convenience of online and mobile scheduling tools at CareSpot.com. Customers can save a spot in line before walking in, or book an appointment for a future time or day from their computers or smartphones. These conveniences allow patients to spend more time at home and less time in the lobby. The centers also feature digital check-in tablets for a nearly paperless, streamlined registration when patients arrive.

CareSpot also offers the convenience of treating non-emergent medical problems that can develop unexpectedly and require immediate attention, filling the gap between primary care physicians and hospital emergency rooms when patients can't wait for an appointment. Same-day visits at CareSpot can be a more affordable alternative to a hospital emergency department for non-life threatening issues.
