POLL: Will You Go to Patient First or Righttime?

Now that Patient First is open in Odenton, will that be your go-to place for urgent care?

As we reported Wednesday, Patient First is now open for business on Annapolis Road in Odenton, offering quick medical care and primary care. Before Patient First opened, many area residents in need of immediate help went to the Righttime Medical Care center at the Village at Waugh Chapel. The two centers offer similar services, with treatment for minor injuries and common illnesses. Patient First also offers primary care.  Patient First is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day. Righttime is open from 8 a.m. to midnight. Those extra two hours may give an edge to Righttime, but Odenton residents may find the Patient First location more convenient. Of course, it goes without saying that it's best to go to the hospital or call 911 for serious …

The new urgent and primary care facility will be open every day from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

If you have a cut, bruise or just feel under the weather, there's a new place for you to go for care.

The Odenton location—on Annapolis Road across from the Odenton Shopping Center—is the 40th for Patient First.

"It's fast, it's efficient, there are no appointments and you get a broad range of services." Sowers also noted that Patient First offers primary care. Patients may sign on as a patient with a specific doctor, but can get care from any …

This place was a total disappointment. The doctor had horrible bedside manners and I will not be back. They need a new doctor on site. Thank you for making me pay for zero care. Waste of time and money.   more ›

We always use the one in Pasadena and have always found them to be very efficient. They have almost everything on site: x-rays, blood work, etc. The place is spotless and yes, they seem to take every insurance. Also, you can pick up your meds right there for a small fee. Going to Patient's First is much cheaper than going to the ER.   more ›

The next phase of the Odenton Gateway project is well under way, with a medical building and urgent care clinic under construction.
