Wait Times
Using 'On My Way' doesn't guarantee a scheduled appointment time slot but we do our best to accommodate all our patients . Please note that wait times are based on our best estimate, and we need to see patients based on the severity of their illness. When you arrive, please come inside and your brief check-in process will take place.Overview
Urgent Care is for an illness or injury that requires quick care but is not life-threatening. It’s meant to support, not replace, care from your regular doctor. When possible, check with your primary care physician before seeking urgent care.
You can walk into any of our many locations without an appointment. Common conditions we treat include abdominal pain, broken bones, coughs, earaches, fevers, flu, infections, minor burns/trauma, nausea, rashes, sore throat, sprains, strains, vomiting.
Imaging and lab services are available on site for quick diagnosis. So, for example, you won't need to wait to find out if a bone is broken, or if you have strep or a urinary tract infection.
Important Information Regarding COVID Testing
- COVID/Flu/RSV Testing: UR Medicine Urgent Care treats patients with symptoms. Testing is not available for those without symptoms.
- Those with mild symptoms or who need COVID testing should use public testing locations or check with their Primary Care Provider.
- It is not necessary to confirm a positive rapid COVID test. Unless you need medical care, you should remain isolated.
- Unless you need medical care, you should remain isolated at home per CDC guidelines.
- UR Medicine Urgent Care is not a COVID testing only site.

Our Newark location is part of F.F. Thompson Hospital. Because of that, you may receive two separate bills for your care—one from F.F. Thompson Hospital and one from your provider. Depending on your specific insurance coverage it is possible you will pay more for services at our hospital-based urgent care clinics.
