Injury
Cuts & lacerations.
Most straightforward cuts can be closed at urgent care. Deep facial wounds, injuries involving tendon or nerve damage, or heavy contamination may need specialty care.
Quick answer
For cuts needing repair, we clean the wound, close it with sutures, staples, or skin glue as appropriate, and update your tetanus vaccination if needed.
