We offer prompt medical care in the La Marque, Texas, area, and we can provide flu vaccines as well as flu treatment options. We serve children and adults with quality care on a walk-in basis, seven days a week.

What Is the Flu?

Seasonal influenza, commonly referred to as the flu, is a viral infection that usually resolves on its own over the course of a few days. Most people recover from the flu with over-the-counter pain relievers and other conservative methods. However, for severe cases, there are flu treatments such as antiviral medication that may be appropriate. These medications can reduce symptom severity and shorten the illness.

If you are experiencing flu symptoms, such as coughing, fever, chills, or body aches, the medical team at Affinity Urgent Care can test you to determine if you have the flu or another infection (such as the common cold, bronchitis, or COVID-19). We can then recommend treatments to ease your symptoms.

It’s important to receive a yearly flu vaccine to protect yourself against influenza in the future.

Why Get a Flu Shot?

The flu vaccine protects you from influenza infection and can prevent the spread of the flu in your community. Anyone over the age of six months should get a flu vaccine every year, including healthy young adults. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) state that it’s especially important for the following groups to receive a flu shot:

People with obesity or a body mass index (BMI) over 40
Children between six months and two years old
Anyone with a chronic health condition, such as heart disease, asthma, or diabetes
Adults aged 65 and older
Anyone who has recently given birth or is currently pregnant
Older adults in assisted living homes and long-term care facilities

If you belong to one of these groups, it’s essential to get a flu vaccine to protect yourself from potential serious complications.

"We have a special needs daughter who needed her foot looked at. Thankful that Affinity accepted her Medicaid first of all. Staff was nice, did not have a long wait, doctor was knowledgeable and understanding with our daughter, which means a lot. She was able to get x-rays done on her foot and received the results before we left. A great place to go on short notice."

"Facility was very clean. Very short wait. The doctor and x-ray tech were great!!"

"Fast and friendly. Was in and out in about an hour, and the PA and nurses were great. Much better experience than the ER."

"The Affinity care clinic in Galveston was wonderful. I walked in Memorial Day (without an appointment) and was seen by a very courteous and helpful staff. I highly recommend them."
