About urgent care chains
Chains run many urgent care centers under one name, often with online check-in and similar prices across locations. Some are owned by health systems or pharmacies, and some, like AFC Urgent Care, are franchises with local owners.
Locations are matched to each chain by the name on the listing. UrgentCareLocations is not affiliated with any chain.
Frequently asked questions
Which urgent care chain has the most locations?
On UrgentCareLocations, MinuteClinic has the most listed locations (974 in 34 states), followed by Concentra (581) and MedExpress (371).
Is a chain urgent care better than an independent one?
Not necessarily. Chains often offer online check-in and longer hours, while independent centers can be closer or quicker. Compare hours, insurance and distance for the clinics near you.
When should I go to the ER instead of urgent care?
Go to the ER or call 911 for chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of a stroke (face drooping, arm weakness, slurred speech), severe bleeding, a serious head injury, or any symptom that could be life-threatening. Urgent care is for problems that need care today but are not dangerous.
