Objective
Advanced Urgent Care is comprised of board-certified emergency physicians who are available when your primary care physician isn't. Unfortunately their old website was not designed or developed in the best way to instill confidence in their top notch level of care. They needed something that started the patient's experience off right.
Solution
Wood Street designed and developed a clean and easy to navigate website. The patient can now easily find out more about their services and qualifications as well as how to get there and what to expect from their visit. The site also directs them to a third party service where they can access their patient profile online.

This is the home page of Advanced Urgent Care. Urgent Care places are very important. I would know because this past year I have been there at least 4 or 5 times. People go to urgent care when it's serious enough that they can't wait for Monday for a doctor's appointment, but not life threatening that they have to go to the ER. The great thing about Urgent Care is that people don't have to make appointments, but it is first come first serve and that can take up to 2 hours.
I would have liked to see the website before they redesigned. I think for the most part this is a well-designed website. Going to urgent is never fun and can be scary, so you want soothing colors that aren't too bright or black and you want them to be calming. I like the orange and the green on this website because it grabs people's attention, but it's not over the top. I really like the curved design beneath the navigation. It looks sharp. I like that they kept the navigation simple and down to only 3 tabs. A lot of people want to know what to expect when they go to a place like this, but they usually don't find out until they get there. The only thing I don't like about this website is the background. There are 2 feelings that I associate with this background. The first feeling is that it's a dark background (scary place), it reminds me of metal medical tools, and it reminds me of a factory rather than a medical place. On the other hand, they might have made it that way to show people that they are professional (and it makes the website clean). Personally I don't like the background. I think a soothing color should be the background color like maybe a tan or off white color.
This is the About Us page. I like how they kept the same curved designed up top. They definitely have continuity throughout their site. I finished designing my home page for my first website and now I have to design 5 sub pages.
