Urgent Care Clinic
At our Urgent Care Clinic, your child can get medical attention on weekday evenings, weekends and holidays. Our team of providers treats most common childhood ailments, such as fevers, sore throats, flu, stomachaches, ear infections, conjunctivitis, asthma, rashes and minor injuries.
For hours, directions and appointment scheduling, see "Our locations," below.
NOTE: If you think your child may be having a life-threatening emergency, call 911 immediately or go directly to the nearest emergency room.
Please note that our San Francisco, Berkeley and San Rafael locations have pediatricians on staff and after-hours care available. All other locations do not have pediatricians on staff but do provide care for children ages 6 months and older during regular business hours.
