A special care clinic holds its functions strictly to giving particular medical attention to patients whose medical needs become a priority according to some health domain under which such conditions fall, like chronic illnesses, complicated conditions, specific medical specialty areas (for example, cardiology, endocrinology, oncology, and so on). Such special clinics are always "by appointment" services; they take a long-haul care, management, and specialty approach to treatment as opposed to acute, urgent need. A special care clinic would perhaps be able to provide treatments for very minor emergencies by which it could be characterized; for example, to stabilize a patient experiencing complications related to diabetes in an endocrinology center. It can never be equipped to handle matters like heart attacks or extreme-trauma-type emergencies. Those are best suited for emergency rooms, or urgent care facilities. It provides near-all possible health facilities that offer advanced diagnostic services for treatment of conditions beyond the capability or qualifications of general physicians and are often used with referral from primary care. Both these facilities are similar in terms of expertise and delivering personal service to ongoing medical issues. They aren't viewed as emergency care providers since their services generally target planned specialized treatment rather than immediate crises.
