Walk-in Ready Care and Same Day Appointments

Minor illnesses and injuries can come up quickly. For your convenience, we offer same-day help for those unexpected needs at our clinics.

• Walk-in Ready Care – offered at most of our primary care locations. No appointment is needed. Please note that we may close walk-in care early due to increased patient volume.
• Same-day sick appointments – many of our primary care locations offer same-day appointment times for existing patients. Please call ahead to schedule these appointments.

When to make an appointment instead

Note that not all visits are appropriate for walk-in Ready Care. If your child needs a well child exam, has ongoing symptoms such as stomachaches and headaches, or special or complex health care needs, please call for an appointment so we can schedule an appropriate amount of time to address those needs.

If you have any questions about Ready Care services, or would like our help in determining the best appointment type for your child, please call the clinic.
