About us
At FastMed, we have served as the front door of healthcare for our communities for the past 20 years. From our humble beginnings as a family-owned practice in Clayton, North Carolina, we have become one of the leading urgent care providers in the country. We now proudly serve our patients at 55 clinics across the state.
In addition to providing a comprehensive range of Urgent Care services, we support businesses of all sizes with Occupational Health services, and our expanding network includes Family Medicine clinics in North Carolina. In 2014, FastMed was awarded The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval®–a distinction that recognizes our commitment to the highest standards of healthcare quality and safety, and in 2023 we were reaccredited by The Joint Commission for the fourth time for our continued adherence to their standards. FastMed is one of the few urgent care providers in the nation to be honored with this distinction.
Integral to our service philosophy is a simple idea that we call Compassionate Hospitality – that we should treat our patients the same way we would welcome guests into our home, but with the understanding that they should be treated with special empathy and thoughtfulness because many of them are not feeling well. It’s this dedication to going above and beyond to deliver an exceptional experience that sets us apart and distinguishes us as a leader. We are committed to making healthcare more convenient, affordable, and connected for the individuals, families and communities we serve.
Realizing that our patients have many healthcare options, we are dedicated to exceeding your expectations and providing the quality of care you deserve wherever you are, whenever you need us.
