Yes! Many providers offer both virtual and in-person same-day appointments. Virtual visits are great for consultations, follow-ups, and many common conditions. In-person visits are available when physical examination or procedures are needed. You can choose the option that works best for your situation.

Payment details vary by provider. For virtual appointments, you may pay the provider's fee at the time of booking. For in-person appointments, you typically pay at the provider's office. Please check with your chosen provider for their specific payment policies and accepted payment methods.

You can cancel or reschedule using the links provided in your confirmation email. Most providers require at least 2 hours notice for cancellations. For virtual appointments paid upfront, refund policies vary by provider. For in-person appointments, there's typically no charge if you cancel with proper notice.

Clinic Today is designed for non-emergency same-day care. If you're experiencing a medical emergency such as chest pain, severe bleeding, difficulty breathing, or other life-threatening conditions, please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room immediately.

Our providers can help with a wide range of non-emergency conditions including cold and flu symptoms, minor injuries, skin conditions, allergies, mental health consultations, routine check-ups, prescription refills, and many other common health concerns.
