Our skilled medical team is fully equipped to promptly care for a wide range of non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries, helping you feel better quickly and comfortably.

We treat common conditions such as colds, flu, sore throats, ear infections, sinus issues, allergies, and respiratory infections, ensuring that your family receives timely relief. Additionally, we expertly manage minor injuries, including sprains, strains, minor fractures, cuts, burns, and wounds requiring stitches, helping patients avoid lengthy emergency room visits.

Our state-of-the-art facility features on-site diagnostic services, including digital X-rays and laboratory testing, enabling rapid and accurate diagnosis for conditions such as strep throat, influenza, urinary tract infections, and pregnancy. We also provide essential immunizations and preventive care, including annual flu shots, tetanus boosters, and travel vaccinations to keep you healthy year-round. Additionally, we offer physical examinations tailored to your needs, such as sports physicals, school exams, pre-employment screenings, and Department of Transportation (DOT) exams.

At Express Health Urgent Care, we understand that your time and health are valuable. Our convenient walk-in service means you never need an appointment and can receive prompt medical attention at a fraction of the cost compared to an emergency room visit. We take pride in providing compassionate, efficient, and excellent healthcare services to every patient we serve.

We strive to provide convenient access to quality medical care, including accommodating patients whose insurance providers may consider us an out-of-network facility. If Express Health Urgent Care is deemed out-of-network by your insurance carrier, you can still receive prompt medical attention; however, please be aware that your financial responsibility may be higher compared to an in-network provider. Typically, out-of-network visits may require you to pay at the time of service, after which you can submit a claim directly to your insurance provider for reimbursement.

To understand your specific coverage, out-of-pocket costs, and the reimbursement process, we recommend contacting your insurance provider before your visit. They can clarify your coverage details, the percentage of reimbursement you can expect, and any documentation you’ll need for the claim submission process. Additionally, the friendly staff at Express Health Urgent Care is happy to assist you by providing all necessary documentation, itemized bills, and medical records required by your insurance company for smooth reimbursement.

At Express Health Urgent Care in Staten Island, NYC, we understand that your time is valuable, and we’re committed to providing efficient, convenient, and high-quality medical care. We strive diligently to keep your waiting period to an absolute minimum. While actual wait times can fluctuate depending on patient volume, time of day, and the urgency of other patients’ medical needs, most patients at Express Health Urgent Care typically experience wait times averaging only 15 to 30 minutes.

Please keep in mind that during peak hours, weekends, or flu season—when patient volumes are higher—your wait may be slightly longer. To help you minimize waiting time, we recommend visiting during off-peak times, such as mid-morning or early afternoon. Additionally, you can always call ahead to our friendly staff to inquire about current wait times and to better plan your visit.
