Sports Physicals Available Any Day of the Week at Our Walk-In Clinic in Wildwood, NJ

If you’re like many parents, you share the excitement of your child who’s trying out for a school or youth sports program—until you’re handed a sports physical form that needs to be filled out by a doctor right away. How will you manage to get a doctor’s appointment so quickly? How much time must you take off from work to get this prerequisite taken care of?

Fortunately for families in the Wildwood, New Jersey, area, Cape Regional Urgent Care is here to help. We provide sports physicals for kids and teens with no appointment required. Our Wildwood walk-in clinic is open during extended hours every day of the week, including Saturday and Sunday, and our wait times are short.

What to Expect With a Sports Physical at Cape Regional Urgent Care

Generally, school and sports physicals are intended to ensure that children can safely participate in the activities of their chosen program. If you’ve been given a specific form from your child’s school or sports program coordinator, make sure you bring that with you to the sports physical exam because it will provide your consulting doctor with direction regarding which of your child’s physical abilities to evaluate.

You’ll also want to be prepared to discuss your child’s medical history, including any medications that are taken regularly. Most youth physicals include a vision test, so bring your child’s glasses or contact lenses if applicable. At the end of the exam, your consulting doctor will sign the form indicating whether your child is fit to participate in the program without restrictions or with special provisions. (For example, a child with asthma may need to have an inhaler available at all times.) In some cases, follow-up actions may be needed before your child is considered physically fit for participation.

Our walk-in clinic is staffed by experienced, board-certified doctors and other highly qualified medical professionals, all intent on providing our patients with the individual attention they deserve. Our rates are affordable, and we also accept many health insurance plans.
