Urgent care isn’t supposed to be urgent frustration. But in reality, many patients in urgent care Tyler, TX centers face long waits, high costs, and confusing bills. You’ve probably experienced this pain, especially if you’re uninsured or have a high-deductible plan.
Here’s the good news: there’s a smarter, more affordable way to get the care you need—fast.
Why Most Tyler, TX Urgent Care Visits Cost Too Much
We’ve seen it over and over:
- $250+ just to walk in
- Surprise charges for labs or X-rays
- Copays and bills arriving weeks later
- Confusion between urgent care centers and free-standing ERs
- And worst of all—no real relationship with the provider
Daniel Ross from Landvisions shared his experience:
“Before, a simple visit for a bee sting could be $500. Now we text our doctor directly. No waiting, no copay. It’s a no-brainer.”
Urgent care in Tyler shouldn’t be this way. At MyMD Select, it isn’t.

- Rashes & skin conditions
…all in the same place, often with the same provider who knows your history.
Families love that they can cover multiple members under one membership. It’s care that understands your context.
Why Are Urgent Cares So Slow?
Most traditional urgent care centers run on a high-volume, insurance-based model. That means:
- Short visits
- Long waits
- Overbooked schedules
- Paperwork delays
The system is built for throughput—not relationships.
With MyMD Select, there are no waiting rooms. Your appointment is your time. As Clint Carter, MD shared on MyMD Unscripted, Episode #10, when describing starting our practice,
“What was fun was taking care of people an hour at a time, no wait, no waiting room, 24/7 urgent care needs available. After hours by phone, or I could meet them at the clinic if I needed to.”
That’s the kind of care we still provide.

What’s the Difference Between Urgent Care and the ER?
It’s a critical question—because choosing wrong can cost you big.
Urgent Care:
- Handles non-life-threatening issues
- Faster and cheaper
- Often walk-in availability
ER:
- Best for life-threatening emergencies (chest pain, stroke, severe trauma)
- Can cost 10x more than urgent care
- Long waits if you’re not in critical condition
Yet many people use the ER as basic access to healthcare because:
- It’s open 24/7
- They aren’t asked to pay upfront
- They don’t know where else to go
It’s not just inefficient. It’s expensive and unsustainable.
Which Costs More: PCP, ER, or Urgent Care in Tyler?
If you’re wondering where urgent care lands on the pricing ladder:
- Emergency Room: Most expensive (can exceed $2,000/visit)
- Urgent Care: Mid-range ($150-$350 average before tests)
- PCP Visit: Lower cost—but often hard to access when you need it
MyMD Select turns that model upside down:
- Easy access + transparent pricing + relationship-based care
- Urgent care needs met through your existing membership, not a separate visit fee
Simple, Predictable Pricing
- ⒲ $189/month – First adult
- ⒲ $129/month – Second family member
- ⒲ $99/month – Third family member
Includes urgent care, primary care, hormone consults, wellness visits, and more. Labs and procedures? At-cost.
Who Benefits Most from This New Primary Care Model?
- Moms who need peace of mind when kids get sick after hours
- Professionals who can’t afford to sit in ER waiting rooms
- Workers who want injury care without a comp claim
- Employers looking to reduce absenteeism and cost
And yes—businesses love us too. Ask about group memberships or employer-sponsored plans.
