See a pediatrician

Urgent Care pediatricians are available at our 87th Avenue location. Please schedule online to ensure availability. Parents may also call 360-882-2778 to check for open appointments in the Pediatrics Department.

Please plan ahead

Unattended children are not allowed in Urgent Care. Because you may need imaging or other services, and may not be able to watch your children during that time, we recommend you bring another adult with you or arrange for childcare services. Our staff is unable to keep an eye on children for any part of your appointment.

Nurse Advice

Nurse Advice is available 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. weekdays and weekends. Call 360-882-2778 and press the Advice Nurse option. Patients may also schedule a phone call with Nurse Advice using their MyChart account.

Vancouver Clinic’s Nurse Advice line is staffed by registered nurses who listen to patients, review their symptoms, and assess the severity of their health concerns. Nurses then help patients determine how soon they need to be seen—and where. Nurse Advice provides guidance for all ages—infants to adults.

FAQs

What is urgent care?
Urgent care is fast, same-day attention for urgent medical needs. When you have a condition that requires prompt care, but is not a serious health threat, urgent care offers an alternative to waiting for hours in a hospital emergency room.

When should I go to the ER?
If you’re experiencing a medical emergency such as significant chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe abdominal pain, severe headaches, uncontrolled bleeding, stroke symptoms, trauma to the head, poisoning, seizures, or physical or sexual assault, you should go to the nearest emergency room or call 911. Never drive yourself if you are having chest pain, bleeding, feeling faint, or experiencing impaired vision.

Should I call my primary care doctor?
It is always worth calling Vancouver Clinic to see if your doctor has a same-day appointment available. Call 360-882-2778 for appointments.

How do I find urgent care near me?
Vancouver Clinic offers six urgent care locations that are open into the evening, and even on the weekends, so you can easily get the care you need. Find the clinic closest to you, check wait times, or schedule a same-day appointment online. You can find us at 87th Avenue, Camas, Columbia Tech Center, Battle Ground, Ridgefield and Salmon Creek.

How late is urgent care open?
Urgent Care Department hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday and 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. by appointment only Monday through Friday. We are open 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Check our holiday hours. 

How long is the typical waiting time?
Most of our patients are treated in one hour or less. Please remember that emergency situations arise, and that we see walk-in patients based on the severity of injuries or illness. While there is no guarantee that we will be able to see you at your selected time, we will make every effort to honor all online scheduling as quickly as possible. Urgent care clinics share work areas with other specialties, and you may see patients being called back before you to these departments. Patients with complex medical needs may at times require more immediate attention.

Where should I go for pediatric urgent care?
To see a pediatrician specifically, you can go to Vancouver Clinic’s 87th Avenue location, where Dr. Andrew Friedman and Dr. Elzbieta Zdanowicz both see infants, children, and teens. However, all of our urgent care providers will see patients of any age. You can walk-in, schedule online, or call 360-882-2778 for an appointment.

Is your staff bilingual?
Many of our staff members and providers are multilingual or bilingual. We can also provide a free third-party telephone interpreting service as needed. 

How much is an urgent care visit?
Charges depend on your illness or injury, and whether or not you have health insurance. Urgent care copays are generally $15-$50. This does not include medications, tests, or images such as x-rays. These prices are not guarantees and are subject to your unique medical situation and coverage. Your insurance card should show your copay amount, and you can call your insurance carrier to estimate costs.

Is an urgent care copay the same price as a regular visit copay?
Yes. At Vancouver Clinic, we don’t charge you extra just because you need to be seen right away.
