Dr. Ronnie Laney grew up in Durham, North Carolina and always wanted to become a doctor. He says medicine combines two things he loves: people and science. He is board-certified in family medicine and has been practicing urgent care medicine since 2011. Additionally, he served as medical director for an urgent care center for five years. Trained as a primary care physician, Laney says he loves the broad scope of urgent care medicine, along with the chance to perform procedures. He says that, although medicine is challenging and patients are in need, he tries to connect with patients and address their needs, but make them feel special at the same time.
