When urgent care in Bolingbrook is open
Our hours are the same all seven days, weekends included: 8 AM to 8 PM. A sore throat on Saturday or a twisted ankle on Sunday doesn’t have to wait for Monday.
You never need an appointment. Walk in, or save your spot online before you head out. Some people call this kind of visit immediate care, and others search for a walk-in clinic. Here they mean the same thing: care for an illness or injury that shouldn’t wait for a regular appointment but isn’t an emergency.
After we close, the booking page lists next-day times, so you can reserve tomorrow’s visit before bed. If it’s an emergency, call 911 at any hour.
Illnesses and injuries we treat
We treat everyday illnesses and minor injuries in adults and children. MedlinePlus, from the National Library of Medicine, lists the problems an urgent care clinic can handle: colds, flu, earaches, sore throats, low-grade fevers, limited rashes, sprains and minor broken bones. That is the core of our work.
Common reasons people come in are below, and our symptoms guide explains many of them in more detail.
- Sore throat and strep throat
- Flu, COVID-19, colds and coughs
- Ear infections and sinus infections
- Urinary tract infections
- Pink eye and rashes
- Sprains and strains and possible broken bones
- Fever, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea
Care for children and teens
Our pediatric urgent care sees kids from infancy through the teen years, for problems like ear pain, fevers, coughs and sports injuries. We don’t give childhood vaccinations. Those come from your child’s regular doctor or the county health department. The Will County Health Department gives childhood vaccines to Will County residents, including at its Bolingbrook branch. The DuPage County Health Department offers them at its Wheaton, Westmont and Lombard offices to children through age 18 who qualify for the Vaccines for Children program.

X-ray and lab tests on site
We have X-ray on site every day we are open, plus splints and crutches. If you twist an ankle or land hard on a wrist, the X-ray can be taken during the same visit, and you won’t need a second stop for a splint or crutches.
Rapid strep, flu and COVID tests, urinalysis and EKG are all done here as part of our lab testing. For blood work, we draw the sample in the clinic and send it to an outside lab, so those results come back later.
We do not have CT or MRI. If your problem needs one of those scans, you will need a hospital or an imaging center.
Walk in today or save your spot
Walk-ins are welcome every day, weekends included, or you can save your spot online first.
Physicals, STD testing and other services
Beyond sick visits, we offer physicals, confidential testing and several ongoing services. Our services page lists them all.
Physicals
DOT physicals are available 7 days a week with a certified medical examiner listed on the FMCSA National Registry. That listing matters, because federal rule 49 CFR 391.43 requires a commercial driver’s medical exam to be done by an examiner on the National Registry. We also do sports, school and annual physicals.
Testing and ongoing care
STD testing covers common STIs. It is confidential, and a self-pay option is available. Some results come back the same day, while others go to an outside lab. We also offer flu shots, allergy testing, asthma treatment and women’s health visits. On days you’d rather stay home, a telehealth visit lets you talk with us from where you are.
Wellness services
Our wellness services are medical weight loss, IV hydration therapy and peptide therapy.
Can I get urgent care and regular checkups in one place?
Yes. We offer primary care as well as urgent care, so the clinic you walk into for a sudden illness can also handle your yearly physical and follow-up visits.
The two do different jobs. Urgent care deals with the problem in front of you today. Primary care looks at the longer picture: checkups, ongoing conditions and the questions that come up between sick visits. If you already have a doctor elsewhere, that’s fine. We can see you for the urgent problem, and you can follow up with your own doctor. Our guide to urgent care vs primary care explains when each one makes sense.
Insurance we accept and self-pay
We accept these plans:
- Aetna
- Cigna
- Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois
- UnitedHealthcare
- Humana
- Medicare
- Illinois Medicaid (HFS), including the Meridian, CountyCare, Molina and YouthCare plans
Before you come
Plans from the same insurer can cover different things, so call (630) 914-5373 to confirm your specific plan, and bring your insurance card and a photo ID. Medicare Part B covers urgently needed care, and after you meet the Part B deductible, you pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount for the provider’s services. Our insurance page has more on each plan.
No insurance? You can still be seen. Self-pay cost is the visit plus any tests you need, and our self-pay page explains how it works. Call for current self-pay pricing.

Questions and answers
Questions we hear often
Still not sure? Call (630) 914-5373 and we will help you decide.
Is your Bolingbrook urgent care open 24 hours?
No. Our hours are 8 AM to 8 PM every day, weekends included. Once we close, our booking page shows times for the next day, so you can reserve a visit for tomorrow. If something serious happens overnight, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Do I need an appointment for urgent care?
No. Adults and children can walk in any day of the week, weekends included. If you like to plan ahead, save your spot online first. Either way, bring a photo ID, your insurance card and a list of the medicines you take.
Can I be seen without insurance?
Yes. Self-pay is available if you don’t have insurance or prefer not to use it. The cost is the visit plus any tests you need, such as an X-ray or a rapid strep test. Call us for current self-pay pricing, and see our self-pay page for how it works.
Does your urgent care take Medicaid?
Yes. We take Illinois Medicaid (HFS) along with the Meridian, CountyCare, Molina and YouthCare plans. Call to confirm your specific plan before your visit, since plan details can change, and bring your member card. We also accept Medicare, Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, UnitedHealthcare and Humana.
Do you do X-rays at urgent care?
Yes. X-ray is available on site every day we are open, and we keep splints and crutches here, so a sprain or possible broken bone can be checked and supported in one visit. CT scans and MRIs are not done at our clinic. For those, you would need a hospital or an imaging center.
Can I get a physical at urgent care?
Yes. We do sports, school and annual physicals, plus DOT physicals 7 days a week with a certified medical examiner on the FMCSA National Registry. For a school or sports physical, bring the form and your child’s immunization record. Required shots are not given here. They come from your child’s doctor or the county health department.
Do you treat babies and children?
Yes. Our pediatric urgent care covers infancy through the teen years, for illnesses like ear infections, fevers and strep throat and for injuries like sprains. X-ray and rapid tests are here if your child needs them. If a baby is turning blue, struggling to breathe or suddenly hard to wake, call 911.
