I had a UTI at 9pm on a Sunday. Blue River had me seen and a prescription called in within 45 minutes. I couldn't believe how easy it was.

Used my Aetna insurance and paid nothing out of pocket. Same-day appointment, seen from my couch in Raleigh. This is exactly what healthcare should be.
★★★★★

I live 45 minutes from the nearest urgent care. This is a game changer for rural Iowa. Same-day, from my kitchen table. Incredible.
