Our pediatric Urgent Care Centers provide fast, convenient, after-hours care for children with non-life-threatening illnesses or injuries that don’t need the resources of an emergency department (ED). Urgent Care Centers are staffed by board-certified pediatricians and pediatric nurses from Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Onsite X-ray, COVID-19 testing, EKG and labs are also available. Learn about the difference between urgent care and ER services, when to choose each and how to find a location near you. Hours vary by location.

To keep our patients, families and staff safe from COVID-19, we continue to review and adjust our visitation policies. At this time, we are still limiting the number of people in our facilities, and all eligible visitors are required to wear a mask at all times. Please read these guidelines before coming to any CHOP location. Learn what you can expect when you visit CHOP during COVID-19.
