What kind of diagnosis is it? And you most likely wouldn’t be able to without a signature from a guardian. It depends if you’re just going into urgent care yourself or something. But usually things require a guardian signature and it can be costly if you don’t use insurance and I’m sure you don’t have your own workout being dependent on your parents
