What Is a Walk-In Clinic?
A walk-in clinic (also called an urgent care clinic) is a medical facility that provides prompt, non-emergency healthcare without requiring a prior appointment. Walk-in clinics fill the gap between a primary care physician (who may not have same-day openings) and a hospital emergency room (which is designed for life-threatening emergencies and comes with long wait times and high costs).
Walk-in clinics like CityHealth offer:
- Same-day care without prior scheduling
- Treatment for a wide range of illnesses and injuries
- On-site diagnostic testing (X-rays, lab work, rapid tests)
- Lower costs than the ER
- Shorter wait times than most emergency departments
- After-hours care when your primary care doctor is unavailable
