CVS MinuteClinic

CVS MinuteClinic is a retail clinic inside of CVS Pharmacy in San Antonio and is open today from 8:30am to 7:30pm. They are located at 22202 Bulverde Rd and open 7 days per week. Of course it's always best to call in advance to confirm hours of operation before walking in.

Retail clinics offer a wide range of services overlapping considerably with those of a traditional walk-in urgent care center. That said, they are usually staffed by a Nurse Practitioner (NP) rather than a medical doctor and generally do not have an on-site x-ray or lab services, which will prevent them from seeing patients with more advanced injuries and illnesses. Should the wait at CVS MinuteClinic get a bit much, or you need to be seen by a doctor, you can book online at Impact Urgent Care, a nearby urgent care clinic 1.5 miles away in San Antonio with an average patient rating of 4.8515406162465 out of 5 stars, based on 357 ratings.

As noted, retail clinics like CVS MinuteClinic are not staffed or equipped the same as an urgent care center, but they do offer much needed healthcare services like common immunizations like the flu shot, health screenings, physical exams and basic blood work. They can also treat symptoms of the cold and flu, allergies, minor cuts and burns, and simple strains and sprains. Anything more and you should head to a nearby urgent care center. One great benefit of retail clinics is that they offer on-site pharmacies like CVS Pharmacy making prescriptions very convenient.
