    Same-Day Care for Everyday Illness and Injury

    When something comes up, you should not have to choose between waiting days for an appointment and sitting in a crowded emergency room. Townsen Physician Group reserves same-day appointments for Houston patients who need care for sudden illness or a minor injury, with a provider who already knows your history.

    Flu and Seasonal Illness

    Fever, body aches, and a cough that came on fast are worth a same-day visit. We diagnose and treat the flu and other seasonal illness, and help you recover safely at home.

    Knee Injury

    A knee injury can make everyday movement difficult, whether it starts on the field or from a simple misstep. We evaluate the injury and build a treatment plan to get you moving again.

    Minor Cuts

    For minor cuts and everyday wounds, a same-day visit means proper cleaning, closure when needed, and guidance on healing without a long wait.

    Allergies

    Sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, rashes, and hives can point to allergies. We help Houston patients identify triggers and manage symptoms, including allergy testing when it is the right next step

    Sports Injuries

    From strains and sprains to overuse injuries, we assess sports injuries and coordinate the right care, including orthopedic evaluation and concussion assessment when needed.
