Urgent Care

Family Care Network Urgent Care offers same-day care for minor illness and injuries – seven days a week.

Walk-ins are welcome up to two hours before closing as capacity allows, then by appointment only. Please review the following information to learn more about FCN Urgent Care. Estimated walk-in wait times and online scheduling are included with the location map, below.

Posted wait times are an estimate and may change as patients are seen throughout the day. Wait times are an approximation of the time between checking in and being roomed. The total time before you are seen by your clinician and complete your visit may be longer than the estimated wait time.

What to expect at Urgent Care
  • Walk-ins are welcome up to 2 hours before closing as capacity allows, then patients are seen by appointment only.
  • Walk-in patients are typically seen on a first come, first served basis in the order that they arrive. However, a patient with a more urgent medical concern may be seen out of order. Please be patient in these situations. Your care is important to us, and you will be seen as soon as possible.
  • If we reach capacity for the day, we may need to stop accepting new walk-in patients prior to our posted times.
  • Appointment slots are available to schedule online only; we don’t schedule appointments over the phone. An appointment does not guarantee that you will be seen at that time if a patient presents with a more urgent medical concern and needs immediate attention. Please be patient in these situations. Your care is important to us, and you will be seen as soon as possible.

Important FAQs

When should I use Urgent Care?

Urgent Care is ideal for non-life-threatening conditions that require prompt attention, but aren't severe enough for an emergency room visit.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, please call 911 or go directly to your local emergency room.
