Should I Take My Child to Urgent Care or the Emergency Room?

Pediatric urgent care is designed for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries, offering quick, compassionate care for children age 2 and up. If your child has a fever with cold or flu symptoms, an earache, mild injuries, or needs treatment for conditions like croup or dehydration, urgent care can provide diagnosis, treatment, and even on-site testing — often faster and at a fraction of the cost of an emergency room visit.

The ER is the right choice for life-threatening or severe symptoms, including: difficulty breathing, persistent vomiting or dehydration, severe head injuries, seizures, high fever that doesn’t respond to medication, or any situation where your child’s safety is immediately at risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pediatric urgent care focuses on non-life-threatening medical issues in children and teens. It provides immediate attention for acute illnesses or injuries, especially outside regular office hours.

Urgent Care is best for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries—like infections, minor fractures, sprains, or UTIs—offering faster, more affordable care (see full list of treated conditions at the top of this page). For severe or life-threatening emergencies (e.g., chest pain, major bleeding, or difficulty breathing), go to the ER or call 911.

Yes! Appointments are not necessary—we’re here to treat non-emergency medical concerns quickly and efficiently. If you’re experiencing a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest ER.

With insurance it depends on your plan. Without insurance, visits cost 135 dollars for new patients, and 105 dollars for established patients.

We accept most major insurers. We do not accept Medicaid.

Talk to your child beforehand to help them know what to expect. Explain that a nurse or doctor may ask questions, check vital signs like temperature or blood pressure, and possibly do a quick test or apply a bandage. This helps reduce anxiety and makes the visit smoother.

Yes, we can evaluate and treat croup, especially if symptoms are moderate to severe, include breathing difficulties, or persist for several days. Treatments may include medications to reduce airway swelling. Mild cases can often be managed at home, but if your child is struggling to breathe, turning blue, or showing other serious signs, seek urgent care or the nearest emergency room immediately.

• Photo ID
• A Current insurance card
• List of medications (names and dosages), if available – your prescription bottles are helpful!”

Yes, urgent care is generally much less expensive than the emergency room for non-life-threatening conditions. Emergency rooms are equipped for severe and complex emergencies, which requires specialized staff and equipment, making visits far more costly. 

Yes, we can treat children for dehydration. Medical professionals ensure children receive the correct type and amount of fluids. In cases of severe dehydration, IV fluids may be administered to speed recovery.
