Acute UTI treatment at home, same day.
When a UTI turns severe, with fever, back pain or vomiting, or an older parent becomes confused, a Care2U clinician can be at your home within a few hours. A physician joins by video, and treatment starts at the visit, including IV fluids and IV antibiotics when you need them. UTIs are one of the most common reasons patients call us.
New patients 9 AM to 9 PM, every day in NYC, Long Island, Westchester and Putnam. In-network with most major insurance plans.

Older adults
UTIs in older adults often show up as confusion or a fall first. We come to the home so they don't have to go out sick.
Patients with a catheter
We treat catheter-related infections and catheter problems at the bedside.
Resistant or stubborn UTIs
Not clearing on pills, or a culture shows a drug-resistant infection such as ESBL? We start and manage IV antibiotics at home.
