Check on Wait Times at our Walk-in Clinics

Before you come in, you can check on wait times at all of our Urgent Care and Quick Care locations. This tool estimates when you will see a provider. Other patients that need more urgent or immediate care may receive attention sooner. We appreciate your flexibility if that happens during your visit.

Is this a scheduled appointment?

No. While you’re able to hold your spot online in the wait queue, this is not a scheduled appointment. The actual time you are seen will depend on several factors, including the number of patients already being treated in the clinic and the variety of their illnesses. We are required to see the sickest patients first, which can also affect your wait time.
