Urinary Tract Infection Treatment in Ossining, NY
Same-day UTI testing and treatment – walk-in clinic, no appointment needed
A urinary tract infection does not wait for an appointment next week. If it burns when you urinate, you are going constantly, or you have pressure low in your abdomen, you want it tested and treated today.
Immediate Medical Care MD in Ossining tests urine on site, so most patients are diagnosed and have a prescription in hand during the same visit. Walk-ins are welcome during walk-in hours and same-day appointments are usually available.
Symptoms of a UTI
Know the warning signs so you can get care quickly.
Urinary Symptoms
- Burning or pain when urinating
- Needing to urinate frequently or urgently, often passing very little
- Cloudy, dark or strong-smelling urine
- Blood in the urine
Abdominal & General Symptoms
- Pressure or cramping in the lower abdomen
- Feeling generally unwell or tired
- In older adults: confusion or sudden change in behaviour can be the main sign rather than urinary symptoms
When a UTI Becomes Urgent
Seek Care the Same Day – Go to ER If You Have:
- Fever and chills
- Pain in your back or side, below the ribs
- Nausea or vomiting
- Confusion, particularly in an older adult
- Symptoms during pregnancy (should always be assessed promptly)
These can indicate a kidney infection, which needs prompt treatment rather than waiting to see whether it settles.
An untreated bladder infection can travel to the kidneys, which is a more serious illness.
Testing and Treatment in One Visit
We run urinalysis on site, so the diagnosis does not depend on a laboratory calling back. Where a culture is needed to identify the specific bacteria, we send it and follow up with you, adjusting treatment if the culture shows something the initial antibiotic will not cover.
Why This Matters
Recurrent or resistant infections are common, and treating one blindly without a culture is how people end up on a second and third course of antibiotics. Dr. Pani will explain which situation you are in and ensure you get the right treatment the first time.
If UTIs Keep Coming Back
Recurrent urinary tract infections are worth investigating rather than repeatedly treating. Because this practice also provides primary care, a pattern can be looked at properly, including whether something else is contributing, and referred to a urologist if that is the right step.
Men, Children and Older Adults
UTIs are most common in women, but they occur in men, children and older adults and can present differently in each.
In Men
UTIs are less common but more likely to need further assessment. A positive test in a man warrants investigation to rule out underlying urinary tract issues.
In Young Children
Symptoms may be nothing more than fever and irritability, with no obvious urinary complaints. Diagnosis requires clinical suspicion and testing.
In Older Adults
Confusion may be the only sign of a UTI, rather than the typical urinary symptoms. Behavioral changes warrant evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I be treated for a UTI the same day?
Yes. We test urine on site and most patients leave with a diagnosis and a prescription during the same visit. No waiting for lab results.
Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins are welcome during walk-in hours and same-day appointments are usually available. Call 914-502-0881 if you'd like to confirm.
When is a UTI an emergency?
Fever, chills, back or side pain, nausea or vomiting can indicate a kidney infection and need prompt care. UTI symptoms during pregnancy should always be assessed quickly. Seek care the same day for these signs.
Why do my UTIs keep coming back?
Recurrent infections have several possible causes and are worth investigating rather than repeatedly treating. These might include anatomical issues, resistant bacteria, or underlying conditions. We can assess this and refer to a urologist if needed.
Will I need antibiotics?
If a UTI is confirmed, yes, antibiotics are typically prescribed. Dr. Pani will choose the appropriate antibiotic based on your symptoms and test results, and may adjust it if a urine culture shows specific susceptibilities.
