Five Star accepts most insurance plans and Medicare and describes itself as a “more affordable alternative [to] hospital emergency rooms.”

Five Star Urgent Care operates on a walk-in basis and doesn’t require an appointment.
The Fairmount location operates seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
