Pediatric Urgent Care Info
We realize that many urgent health care needs can occur after hours, when your child’s primary care provider may not be available. That’s why Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego offers pediatric urgent care services in neighborhoods around San Diego for children who need medical attention. View our locations.
When to Go to Urgent Care
Take your child to Urgent Care for minor illnesses and injuries, including:
- Sprains, strains or contusions (deep bruises)
- Minor lacerations
- Mild to moderate asthma attacks
- Ear infections
- Upper respiratory infections
- Coughs and congestion
- Vomiting and diarrhea
- Sore throats
- Insect bites and rashes
Our interactive Symptom Checker can walk you through your child’s symptoms to determine the best course of action—emergency room, urgent care, primary care, and/or home care.

Urgent Care Status & ER Wait Times
Schedule an Urgent Care Appointment
Patients can walk in as needed or schedule the same day in advance
Urgent care is NOT a replacement for your child’s primary care provider. We do not provide adult care, well-child care, emergency care or major trauma care or treat complex orthopedic injuries. To ensure that Urgent Care is the right place for the treatment of your child’s medical needs, please contact your primary medical care provider.
Urgent Care now offers Estimated Time to Be Seen
- Times are assigned as a Walk-In, after your child has been seen by the on-location Triage Nurse or ahead of time via MyChart Same Day Scheduling.
- Assigned times are an estimate as some patients require immediate attention or longer visits.
- Your time is SAVED FOR YOU! Avoid long unnecessary waiting in a full waiting room.
- You must return 30 minutes BEFORE for Registration and Triage.
- Your time is subject to cancellation if you are late.
