Life doesn’t slow down just because you’ve cut your hand cooking dinner or sprained your ankle chasing after the kids. But when a sudden injury happens, most people feel torn between two stressful options: waiting for hours in a crowded ER or paying high costs at urgent care.
That’s where Direct Primary Care (DPC) steps in. At Burkhart Direct Family Care, we provide minor and acute injury care that’s fast, personal, and affordable, without the hassle of the emergency room.
An acute injury is one that happens suddenly and requires immediate attention. Examples include:
If you’ve ever wondered, “Which of the following is an acute injury?” — the answer is anything unexpected that causes pain, swelling, bleeding, or loss of function right away.
When it comes to minor injury treatment, our approach is straightforward: quick access, expert attention, and follow-up care that doesn’t stop when you leave the clinic.
Whether it’s a child’s scraped knee, a work-related cut, or a sprained wrist, Burkhart DPC provides wound care in primary care settings, meaning you don’t have to bounce between urgent care, specialists, and the ER.
Our team acts as your primary wound care specialists, handling everything from cleaning and dressing wounds to monitoring for infection and ensuring proper healing.
