I had an emergency. My phone had no power. The receptionist registered me. In 7 minutes I was called to a patient room, was seen by the doctor, and discharged. Every one was professional, respectful, and vibrant. The facility was decorated like a grand hotel. I saved the Next Level number in my phone to take a gift for being exceptional.

They were friendly and professional and saw me quickly. Dustin did my X-rays and splints and gave me instructions on crutch usage. He was awesome! My provider was Katy. She was great too! They were really informative & caring. They answered all of my questions. I would definitely come back here & recommend it to my friends & family. The cost was reasonable.

Walk-in Clinic FAQs

  • How much does a walk-in clinic cost in Houston?

    There are no real industry standards, so not all walk-in clinics are the same in terms of services or pricing. Even though the clinics will charge different prices, depending on location, the base prices range between $75 and $125. That is for the normal services and not specialized ones. You should expect to incur additional costs if you require a special service or medication such as a lab test, an X-ray, or an immunization shot. These may range between $50 and $150, again depending on location. Of course, these costs apply only when you are paying in cash as opposed to using your insurance policy. If you are walking in with insurance, on the other hand, you can expect to co-pay around $20-$50, depending on location, your plan and whether you are in network with the provider.

  • Is insurance accepted at walk-in clinics in Houston?

    Each insurer determines if their plans cover walk-in clinics or not. Your insurer may not cover that, which is the reason why you should always call ahead and be sure before walking in for treatment with your insurance plan. Most plans cover that though so it is highly likely that your nearest walk-in clinic will say yes when you call to find out if they accept insurance plans.

  • Is a walk-in clinic a substitute for a primary care physician?

    While walk-in clinics treat most minor injuries and illnesses, it is generally not a good idea to substitute them for a primary care physician. These facilities exist to supplement, not replace, primary care providers which may be closed in the evenings or on weekends and holidays. Using a walk-in clinic as your primary care provider may limit your access to healthcare due to the lower capacity of these facilities compared to a regular medical facility. Additionally, you may have trouble seeing the same provider visit to visit, so they may have very little awareness of your medical needs on an on-going basis.

  • What’s the difference between an urgent care and walk-in clinic?

    Walk-in clinic, urgent care center, convenient care clinic, immediate care clinic, and retail clinic are terms that are often used (too) interchangeably, creating confusion amongst patients. In essence, any healthcare facility that lets patients walk-in to get treatment without an advance appointment could be considered a walk-in clinic.

    An urgent care center, on the other hand, is a subtype of the walk-in clinic model that generally provides expanded services and extended hours. Retail clinics, which are another type of walk-in clinic, offer fewer services compared to the former. In addition, they are located inside of retail outlets or pharmacies, typically staffed by a nurse practitioner and generally cheaper than walk-in clinics.

  • What is a walk-in clinic?

    Walk-ins is a term used to describe a wide variety of clinics that accept patients without prior appointments. Different types of walk-ins include retail, urgent care, occupational medicine, and primary care clinics that offer walk-in hours. Even though it is difficult to calculate the exact number of walk-in clinics that exist in the United States given the variable and vaguely-defined nature of the category, 15,000 facilities are estimated to be around. While the majority of the facilities are government, charity or foundation, offering free services, many are private, providing extremely affordable rates.

  • Where can I find and book a walk in clinic appointment in Houston?

    Solv allows visitors to book walk in clinic visits online with just a few taps. Same-day and next-day visit times are generally available, and you can search for real-time availability clinics.

Recent Walk-in Clinic Reviews (20)

I had been all over houston, & katy looking to have my children tested for (Covid-19, Flu, RSV) & everywhere it was either booked, or didn’t accept walk ins, or there was a 4-8 hour wait to be seen. I have 4 children all different ages, starting at 14, 7, 6, & 2 month old baby, the staff was friendly and fast at getting them seen and send back home with there medications.

Joan Le was very professional, she gave me options on treatments and understood my concerns. What a great PA to have on the team. The telehealth option was fantastic with all that is going on with this pandemic. I will definitely continue to use both walk-in and telehealth services.

- Verified patient on 4/7

It is you everything you would expect a walk-in clinic to be plus some. I was really impressed with the physician who took her time to correct a billing issue that even I had overlooked. After having to be tested for Covid four times in less than 60 days that was really appreciated.

- Verified patient on 4/7

The NP was friendly and helpful. We've been here a few times and always received good care. The wait time for our appointment was an hour which is just crazy. We weren't a walk-in. We used their telemed service which made us this appointment so it was frustrating to then have to wait even more. It took a big chunk out of our afternoon.

- Verified patient on 9/16

I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. When my appointment time arrived I was taken back to my room. The nurse gave me my test, she took my vitals and then she checked on the test and told me I was negative. The staff was extremely friendly. The nurse was great. I would recommend this walk in clinic to all of my friends that live in that area.

- Verified patient on 8/8

I've taken my kids many times to this location, unfortunately this time I was a little dissapointed for the looong wait, obviously I'm taking my son because he feels sick, but after 3 hours waiting, he felt worse, his fever came back in that lapse of time. Hopefully they don't make any more appointments than what they can handle. I was a walk in.

- Verified patient on 11/12

Wait was 3+ hours as a walk-in (no appts available) but was grateful for the text service on Solv that alerts you when to come back to the clinic. Medical and front desk staff were terrific! Highly recommend.

- Verified patient on 8/5

Wait times was deplorable. I had made appointment on line and the walk-ins were going ahead of me. I had active miserable symptoms of COVID and I waited 1 1/2 hours. That was wrong! I have to say, the staff was super. Susan and her assistant were as nice as they could be.

- Verified patient on 8/9

First time here, staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Easy to check in, was a walk in but wait was not as long as I expected. Doctor was informative and not in a rush, which I appreciate. Would definitely come back if needed.

- Verified patient on 8/13

Took my son as a walk in after he accidentally closed the car door on his right thumb to be sure he didn't break it or needed to have pressure in under the nail alleviated.. Wait time, triage, waiting for examination & x-rays all took 30 to 40 minutes. That was awesome & the staff is really great. Thank you so much everyone. This frazzled mom is going to go pass out.

- Verified patient on 3/19

As a walk-in, I waited an exceptable amount of time. All of my questions we answered and I was out of there in just a few minutes.

- Verified patient on 11/2

Came as a walk-in with my 8 week old. Front desk was very friendly. The nurse and doctor both took great care of my baby and answered all my questions. If I ever need an urgent care for my kids, this is the first place that comes to mind

I enjoyed talking with medical Dr. on video chat. He prescribed medication at my local Pharmacy. All this without a walk in visit. Thanks Doc, from the bottom of my ❤️. Hoping you and your family a safe Easter.

I know there is a lot of demand for testing right now but was disappointed that I couldn’t do the walk-in appointment for COVID testing. I waited 3 days for the earliest appointment. The staff and clinicians are always kind and wonderful.

- Verified patient on 12/30

We were "walk-ins" and obviously had to wait until the appointed were seen first. They were very kind an apologetic for the wait time but we were grateful to had been seen at short notice.

- Verified patient on 8/10

Waited over 2 1/2 hours. I was a walk in so i expected the wait. Staff was very nice. The room was not clean had sweat stain on the chair and the nurse did say I haven't cleaned the rooms when going in to replace paper for the bed. Other than that everything was good.

- Verified patient on 4/12

This location on University just west of Texas Ave was great. I contacted the other 2 locations on University east of Hwy 6 and Jones Crossing both told me they were not accepting walk in's. For something to be called urgent care and not accept walk in appointments is no different than a normal clinic. After my daughter got seen and was prognosed I was aking the doctor why the other 2 locations weren't walk in's, he told me that they don't deny the care for children regardless if they are taking walk ins or not. The other 2 locations were aware that the patient was a 20 month old with flu like symptoms and was denied to be seen. So it you want to have a great experience make you use the Integrity Urgent Care west of Texas Ave.

- Verified patient on 12/28

The staff were kind and helpful. Trying to check in was frustrating. My phone would not take a picture of the check-in app, and I'm not computer savvy, so I had to go home & bring my son back to help me, and while we were trying to complete the paperwork on the phone, the receptionist called me in and completed it for me. When you feel bad anyway, you don't need that added frustration. Why can't a person just walk in and register like we used to do? A lot of old people like me aren't good with computers and phones.

These convenient care sites offer qualified providers who can diagnose and treat a variety of minor injuries and illnesses on the same day. If you've ever wondered, "Where can I find a walk-in clinic in Houston?" you've come to the right place.

When you need medical help right away, the last thing you want to do is travel to a neighboring clinic just to find out it is closed. It was such a waste of time. Instead, look for a walk-in clinic that is currently accepting patients. It's sometimes more important that the location is "open now" than how close it is or if it has good patient feedback. It's conceivable that all you want is a quick diagnosis and treatment so you can get back to your normal routine. Based on your area, Solv has compiled a list of walk-in clinics that are now operating. The most relevant, closest, and highest rated results are automatically shown first for your convenience.

Walk-in Clinic Guide

In a recent survey conducted with the Urgent Care Association, Solv found that patients were waiting an average of 24 days for appointments with their primary care provider. In a world of instant gratification, consumers demand more. They demand now. If you want to watch a movie, you download it in minutes or stream it instantly. If you need groceries, you can pick up your phone and have them delivered to you within the hour. If you need restaurant reservations, you find one with availability, book online, walk in minutes later and sit right down. Healthcare shouldn’t be any different.

That’s why walk-in clinics have been growing at a faster pace than any other healthcare service in the United States. And it is why healthcare consumers search for “urgent care” more than 5x more than “primary care” or “family doctor,” combined. These consumers are highly actionable, searching with high intent terms like “walk-in clinic near me.” They want same day access to quality healthcare providers when they are sick or injured - after hours, one weekends and on holidays - without the cost and inconvenience of the emergency room.

Walk-in clinics typically treat minor illnesses like the flu, sinus infections and strep throat, as well as minor injuries like cuts, scrapes and burns, making these clinics ideal for diagnosing and treating non-emergent healthcare needs. Urgent care centers, which are one type of walk-in clinic that usually have medical doctors and x-ray equipment on-site, expand even further on these services. And at a growing rate walk-in clinics are offering preventative care services including annual physicals and well visits, flu shots and other immunizations and vaccines, taking on the role of primary care provider for the tens of millions of consumers that don’t have one.

Walk-in Clinic Services & Pricing

Walk-in clinics, which include urgent care, retail clinics and others, are a convenient resource for consumers needing treatment for minor illnesses and injuries. Services that you would normally receive at your primary care office are usually available at a walk-in clinic including annual and school physicals, flu shots and immunizations, treatment for illnesses including colds, flu stomach pains, sinus and ear infections and more. Depending on the type of clinic you visit, you could also be seen for injuries such as burns, bites, sprains and breaks. As for cost, without insurance, you should expect between $75-140 for your visit, plus the cost of any labs, tests or images.

Insurance & Payments

Nearly all walk-in clinics take commercial insurance and many (if not most) will take medicare. As such if you have insurance coverage, you can expect the financial experience to be similar to visiting a specialist where you have a co-pay, usually $25-50, due at the time of the visit. Any additional lab work, x-rays or other tests performed will be billed against your insurance first and any supplemental balance due will be invoiced to you after the fact. Without insurance, you’ll pay a visit fee between $75-140 at the time of your visit. This is typically 25-50% more than your primary care provider, but usually the convenience is well worth the additional cost. If you are interested in a telehealth or video visit, your cost could be as much as 50% less than an urgent care, you could be diagnosed and prescribed medication and you’ll never have to leave your home.

    Walk-in Clinic Hours & Wait Times

    Every walk-in clinic - even those part of the same group or brand - may have different hours. While they are meant to be conveniently accessible during times when your primary care provider is not, that’s subjective and highly variable. A traditional formula, however, is that most walk-in clinics are open 6 to 7 days a week usually between the hours of 8 am to 8 pm. That could shift to nearly any 8-12 hour period between 7 am and 10 pm. You’ll even find some clinics open 24 hours a day, similar to an emergency room. As for wait time, most patients report waiting between 15-45 minutes on average, but that can certainly vary, as well. It’s usually best to find a walk-in clinic near you to either confirm the hours online, or call the clinic directly to verify. Or, you can book a same day doctor appointment online with Solv.
