Cape May - It is a fact that Americans go to the doctor twice as much as people in any other country, yet our overall health is way down the list. The rapid rise of urgent care centers has made this even worse, turning us into a nation of medical care junkies. People are now going to the doctor for minor ailments that they would never go for if they had to make an appointment. Urgent care is now replacing regular doctor visits for a growing number of people, instead of being used when you cannot see your primary doctor. The convenience is causing people to go for every little thing!
