Santa Barbara Urgent Care Expands Hours for Patient Convenience
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – As the demand for healthcare in California grows, Sansum Clinic, part of Sutter Health, is working to improve convenience for patients.
Doctors at the clinic say they have observed an unusually long flu season.
They also note that COVID-19 remains prevalent, and RSV persisted longer than expected.
To better meet patient needs, the clinic has expanded hours at its Urgent Care facility on Pesetas Lane.
The clinic will now remain open one hour later on weekdays, operating from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Beginning Memorial Day, May 26, Sansum Clinic’s Urgent Care will also extend its holiday hours, opening from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
“To enhance convenience for patients, we know that sometimes they want to come in after work but can't make it in time. By extending our hours, we’re ensuring they can be seen,” said Dr. Marjorie Newman of Sutter Health.
Walk-up appointments are available at 215 Pesetas Lane Urgent Care, according to Sansum. However, scheduling same-day visits online can streamline the process and often reduce wait times.
