    Call Us First for Non-Life-Threatening-Emergencies

    Here at MMR Healthcare in Boynton Beach, we understand how frightening non-life-threatening emergencies can be. That is why we firmly believe you should call us first.

    During after hours, you may call us to be directed to our on-call nurse that will guide you through what to do during your non-life-threating emergency.
