Thomson Medical unveils urgent care centre for non-emergency conditions

The facility offers diagnostic services supported by the Thomson Diagnostic Imaging Centre.

Thomson Medical has launched a 24-hour urgent care centre at its 187-bed facility on Thomson Road to provide medical support for non-emergency conditions.

The new centre offers diagnostic services supported by the Thomson Diagnostic Imaging Centre, including X-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, 3D mammography, and specialised tests such as contrast-enhanced mammography and fluoroscopy.

The facility also houses a day surgery operating theatre for minor procedures, three observation beds for short-term patient monitoring, and a dedicated isolation room with negative air pressure to prevent the risk of infectious diseases. 

According to the group, the centre is designed to handle medical issues including gastrointestinal and respiratory problems, minor injuries, skin conditions, eye problems, allergies, infections, and general ailments.

Moreover, patients have access to specialities such as internal medicine, general surgery, gynaecology, paediatrics, ophthalmology, orthopaedic, cardiology, ENT, and gastroenterology. 

Meanwhile, the centre’s doctors will facilitate transfers to public or private hospitals for cases needing extended care of hospitalisation.
