The department also offers same-day appointments for check-ups, vaccinations, sports physicals, sick visits, and more.

Illnesses and injuries don’t take weekends off, and neither do our walk-in care facilities. Our Urgent Care Main and Urgent Care South locations are open seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays, between the hours of 8 am and 6 pm. Our XpressCare Highlands facility is open every day of the week as well, including every Saturday from 8 am – 6 pm and every Sunday from 9 am to 3 pm.
