Urgent Care for Fever
A fever is a signal, not a diagnosis. We examine, test (flu, strep, COVID, RSV, urinalysis), and identify the source — then treat it. Infants under 3 months with any fever of 100.4°F+ need immediate evaluation; bring them in or seek emergency care right away.

Questions patients ask about Urgent Care for Fever
When should I go to urgent care for a fever?
Adults: fever over 103°F, lasting 3+ days, or with concerning symptoms. Any fever in an infant under 3 months is an emergency-level concern.
When should a child's fever go to the ER?
Any fever in a baby under 3 months needs immediate evaluation. Older children: seek the ER for fever with stiff neck, rash, lethargy, or difficulty breathing.
When is a fever dangerous for adults?
104°F+ requires same-day care. Any fever with stiff neck, confusion, rash, severe headache, or trouble breathing is an emergency regardless of the number.
Can urgent care treat ear infections?
Yes — ear infections in kids and adults are everyday urgent care work: exam, diagnosis, and prescription in a single visit.
Can urgent care treat UTIs?
Yes — with on-site urinalysis and same-visit antibiotics. Uncomplicated UTIs in women can even be treated by telehealth.
When should I go to urgent care instead of the ER?
Urgent care: things that need attention today but aren't life-threatening. ER: chest pain, breathing trouble, stroke signs, severe bleeding, major trauma.
