UCSF Health’s urgent care team provides evaluation and treatment for medical problems that need prompt attention but are not life-threatening. We offer same-day and next-day appointments for adults 18 and older. For patients under 18, we offer pediatric urgent care at multiple locations.
For information on scheduling a same-day appointment, see our urgent care clinics listed below. We ask that you arrive 20 minutes before your appointment time for check-in and initial evaluation.
We have on-site imaging, electrocardiography (EKG) and blood testing services. Whether you're dealing with a sprained ankle, a sinus infection or another pressing problem, our team's goal is to deliver the care you need quickly.
If you think you might be experiencing a life-threatening emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Our emergency department is open 24 hours every day.

Insurance and self-pay
Insurance coverage: Before your appointment, please contact your insurance carrier to verify that UCSF is an in-network provider for your plan. Your insurer can also tell you whether your plan requires that you reach an annual deductible before it pays for your visits.
Self-pay visits: If you're unable to obtain a referral or authorization for your appointment, or if you choose to pay for your visit yourself, you will need to make a deposit at the time of your appointment. This is a deposit only and doesn't include fees for any tests or procedures. You'll receive a bill in the mail for the amount owed for your visit and services received.

- Established patients: $156 deposit
