ABOUT US

ABOUT Fast Access Healthcare

Although Fast Access Healthcare is a place where people can receive primary healthcare with walk-in access, the name Fast Access has more meaning than just quick. We are not the ordinary Walk-In Clinic. We are much more than the average primary care office. In fact, we strive to be the leader of primary care in more ways than basic healthcare. Yes, we are charged with the calling of providing fast access to primary care when people need it. But, we have a foundation that is built on a different level. Our name is the key to understanding our foundation. Fasting is that key. Although fasting can be healthy under appropriate direction, it brings about more than just a physical challenge for the human body. As found in Isaiah 58:6-9, fasting is a directive to access health and understanding spiritual principles. Mental, physical, and spiritual health must be addressed in the whole person. Thus, we strive to provide a basis and foundation from which all people can have fast access to holistic health.

PRIMARY CARE MPj04097700000[1].jpg

IN-OFFICE PHILOSPHY AND PROCEDURESFast Access Healthcare offers a wide range of Comprehensive Primary Healthcare services. From coughs and colds to diabetes and high blood pressure, we serve a wide range of people and medical problems. We provide same day walk-In service, although appointments get priority; and while sometimes we get backed up in our schedule as most health facilities do, we strive to keep our flow moving as to be respectful of patients time. We place clear emphasis on the fact that we triage and see the sickest patients first. However, we will always take the appropriate time with each patient, striving to provide a positive experience. We may not conquer every problem within a single visit but we will work to gain the appropriate information so that a tailored healthcare plan can be enacted for every patient. Patients can establish a primary care relationship at any of the clinic locations.

AVAILABLE PROCEDURES•EKG•Cardiac Monitoring•Suturing•Incision and Drainage•Joint Injections•Trigger Point Injections•Biopsies•Cryo-Surgery•Braces and SupportsFor a complete list of procedures and explanations CLICK HERE

ADDITIONAL TESTING

Testing

Lab We offer extensive lab services in each office. Currently, we utilize a nationally known reference lab for laboratory services. We are currently in the process of upgrading to a High Complexity In-House Lab with our own staff pathologist. A high complexity lab is offered by very few primary care clinics.X-Ray Our East Brainerd Location has a new digital radiology suite to serve our patients. With the capability to perform all plain X-ray services, our new radiology program offers fast access to high quality radiology. All of our X-ray services are over-read by a team of radiologists.Ultrasound We offer extensive ultrasonography services to our patients at most locations. From general to vascular, ultrasound is a non-invasive radiological service that has a high yield of information. Through this program, we are now associated with local cardiovascular specialists in Chattanooga and at Emory University in Atlanta, GA. Cryo-Surgery We offer in-office surgical procedures for skin lesions involving most parts of the body. The Cryo-Pen is a method of freezing skin lesions that need to be destroyed though a non-liquid freezing technique. Biopsies We perform simple shave and excisional biopsies of suspicious skin lesions. Once a biopsy is obtained, we then send the specimen for pathological evaluation.Incision and Drainage We perform limited incision and drainage (I&D) of abscesses, boils, and infected superficial lesions.Suturing - We offer suturing of minor lacerations in the office. We reserve the right to refer wounds of complexity to an appropriate tertiary care center.Trigger Point Injections We offer trigger point injections (TPI) as an alternative pain control option. This procedure uses local anesthesia placed in muscle groups via local injection for the purpose of local pain control.E-Stim/Interferential Treatments/ Therapeutic Ultrasound We offer additional alternative treatments for local pain control. Electrical Stimulation of localized muscle and nerve groups provide additional treatments for pain control.TENS Units Patients who qualify for home treatments with topical electrical nerve stimulators can obtain a TENS unit at any of our offices. This is a professional medical grade device and requires a prescription for application and purchase. Our TENS units are all digital.Braces and Supports We offer a range of braces and supports to our patients who may require back braces, knee, ankle, and wrist braces. Joint Injections - We offer additional therapeutic and pain alternative treatments when indicated. Joint injections can be offered to patients, such as shoulders and knees. EKG Electrocardiograms are routinely offered in each office to evaluate electrical conduction, rhythm, and potential cardiac disturbances.Spirometry This is a basic lung capacity test that allows us to evaluate pulmonary performance. All asthma and COPD patients are evaluated to obtain a base line of lung function. Periodically, patients are re-evaluated to assess treatment performance.Cardiac Holter Monitors This modality allows us to assess cardiac rhythms and electrical function over a 24-hour period. Whereas EKGs give us the insight in a short period of time, Holter monitors provided much more collective information, especially while at rest.ONPO (Overnight Pulse Oximetry) ONPOs are tests that we order, but outsource. This test is performed at a patients home. While wearing this small unit on a finger or wrist, patients who experience breathing problems or significant sleep disturbances can have their oxygen levels evaluated while sleeping.
