A new Temple University Health System urgent care facility in Northeast Philadelphia picked a good time to open its doors. “We opened up just as flu season hit,” said Steve Matta, who came from the Temple ReadyCare in Port Richmond to man the Northeast office. “We were really busy right away.” The neighborhood outpost offers urgent medical care for unexpected, non-emergency illnesses and injuries. “It’s the weekend, and a patient says...’I was slicing open a bagel, and I cut my finger.’ We don't have to say, ‘Tough it out until I’m back in the office on Monday or go to the emergency room.’ We can treat them here seven days a week,” said Eric R. Mankin, chief executive of Temple Physicians.
