About urgent care in Burgdorf
Urgent care is for illness or injury that needs attention today but is not life-threatening: a fever, a sprain, a cut that may need stitches, a urinary tract infection. It sits between your regular doctor, who may not have a same-day appointment, and the emergency room, which is for emergencies.
The list above shows the urgent care centers and walk-in clinics we have for Burgdorf. Each one is labeled with what it is, and other clinics in Burgdorf (primary care, specialists, hospitals) are listed separately below it, so you know before you go. Where a clinic publishes its hours, you can filter for places open now or open 24 hours.
Services differ from clinic to clinic. Many urgent care centers have X-ray and basic lab tests on site, but not all of them do, and some do not see young children. Call ahead to check hours, services and whether they take your insurance. For chest pain, trouble breathing or severe bleeding, call 911.
