Urgent care is a healthcare service focused on providing immediate, non-life-threatening medical attention. Urgent care centers treat conditions such as sprains, cuts, burns, and common illnesses and offer a range of services, including diagnostic and preventive care like immunizations and physicals. With an estimated 15,000 clinics in the U.S., urgent care centers operate beyond traditional primary care office hours, offering a convenient and lower cost alternative to emergency rooms for urgent but minor health issues.

What is a walk-in clinic?

A walk-in clinic is a type of healthcare facility that provides medical care to patients without the need for an appointment. These clinics cover a range of services such as urgent care, occupational medicine, and primary care with walk-in availability. They cater to non-emergent health issues, offering a convenient option for accessible medical attention. Walk-in clinics vary from free services provided by government, charity, or foundation-operated facilities to private clinics with affordable rates, serving as a practical alternative for minor illnesses and injuries outside of traditional doctor's offices and emergency rooms.

Do urgent care centers in Boston take appointments?

Historically, urgent care centers were strictly an on-demand, walk-in healthcare service. More recently, as consumer behaviors and expectations have evolved, many urgent care clinics have begun offering book ahead visits, allowing consumers to select a same-day or next-day time that works best for their schedule. Use Solv to find a Boston urgent care center that offers advanced bookings (or appointments) and book online.

Are Boston urgent care centers open after hours?

Yes. Most primary care doctor offices are open during routine work hours, Monday thru Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Conversely, most of the urgent care centers in Boston are available after hours, on weekends, and many holidays. Typical urgent care hours are 8:00 am to 8:00 pm daily, although location-specific hours may vary.

How much will an urgent care visit in Boston cost?

The cost of a visit to an urgent care in Boston varies, with cash prices for the base visit generally ranging from $100 to $175. Additional treatments, such as lab tests, X-rays, or immunizations, can increase costs, typically between $50-150 each. If you're using insurance, expect a co-pay between $20 and $50, depending on your plan and whether the clinic is in-network. Prices differ based on location, so it's best to check directly with the urgent care center and your insurance provider for accurate cost estimates.

I have used urgent care in Northboro several times over the past two years . I am amazed at the professional level of care given. Each time I have gone I have been treated with the upmost respect. I make an appointment and that assures me that the wait time will be lessened. I am grateful for all those who work there.

Pediatric urgent care

Visit Clinic

I have 2 children that are seen here and at the North Smithfield location. The Dr. and N.P. are awesome. My children have had X-rays and various labs completed. They are always friendly and efficient. I have never had to take my children to the E.R. because I have always been able to get same day appointments. All around these is a great pediatric group and I would highly recommend it any and everyone.

I had been sick for five days by the time I decided to go to urgent care. I made an appointment online, uploaded all the necessary documents and arrived at the appointment for the time I selected. The receptionist was pleasant and offered a seat. Also informed me I could sit in my car if I would be more comfortable. I waited only about 15 minutes beyond my appointment time and was called into the exam room. The medical assistant was friendly and professional and told me what I could expect. She started with vitals and then swabbed me for Covid and flu. She made sure to tell me it would take about 15 minutes to process both. The Physician’s Assistant examined and diagnosed me. He explained the medications he was calling in, in a caring and professional manner. My overall experience was an A+. I will be returning. I just hope no time soon.
