Our Fast Track service is here for you Monday through Saturday for those times when an illness or injury needs immediate attention but is not an emergency.
Fast Track hours are 7am to 8pm, daily.
Located in the ER at Powell Valley Healthcare.
Some of the most common symptoms that people come to see us for are sore throat, earache, fever, urinary tract issues, upper respiratory symptoms and minor-to-moderate injuries.
As your community Fast Track, our providers and nursing staff take pride in helping you recover from your illness or injury, feel better and get back to your normal routine.
