Emergency & Routine EKG Testing at Urgent Care

Fast, Walk-Ins Available

Heart health is paramount. An electrocardiogram (EKG) test is a non-invasive diagnostic tool crucial for gauging the heart's health and functionality. The importance of this test is undeniable, making it imperative to get it done promptly and efficiently.

CareWell Urgent Care centers are dedicated to ensuring that patients needing EKG tests receive them swiftly without compromising the quality of care. With us, urgent care EKG testing is available on a walk-in basis – no appointment needed.

Equipped with on-site EKG imaging services, our team can quickly assess heart activity and go over your EKG results, giving you peace of mind or helping you take the next medical step.


When to Get an EKG Test

Wondering if an EKG is right for you? Common reasons include:

  • Chest pain or discomfort – An EKG for chest pain (mild) can help detect heart issues that need further care.
  • Heart palpitations or fluttering – Fast or irregular heartbeats may indicate arrhythmias.
  • Pre-employment exams – Some jobs or insurance policies require a cardiac screening.
  • Sports clearance – Athletes often need a baseline heart health check before competitive play.
  • General heart rhythm concerns – If your doctor recommends a heart rhythm test, we’re ready to help.

If you’ve been told to get an EKG or feel unsure about what’s causing chest symptoms, our urgent care center offers a fast and reliable way to get answers.
