It is your worst nightmare during a vacation, but if it happens you’d better cure it as quickly and professional as possible. I am talking about health issues that occur during your relaxing holidays and that need immediate urgent attention. Where do you go on Aruba? Easy: grab a cab for the short ride to Urgent Care Center in Noord and be attended prompt without schedule by highly trained and experienced physicians.

For more than 27 years Dr. Carlos Yagua Sr. and his wife Dr. Noris Velasquez, have a practice on the island that runs with success and out of that seed grew the first and unique Urgent Care Center they run now. This on initiative of their four children, all physicians, who wanted to create an alternative to the crowded ER. Big and small health issues are being offered a quick, reliable and efficient solution here under the direction of Dr. Carlos Yagua Jr. who is general physician with a dual-master’s degree in healthcare and business administration.
