Pediatric Urgent Care in Houston: What Parents Should Know

NeuMed treats children 6 months and older at all Houston clinics — here is what parents should know before a visit.

Parents in Houston often need same-day care for fevers, ear pain, strep symptoms, minor injuries, and rashes. Pediatric urgent care bridges the gap when your pediatrician is unavailable.

Age range: NeuMed urgent care clinics treat children 6 months and older at all five Houston locations.

Services for kids: Illness visits, injury evaluation, on-site X-ray and lab testing when ordered, flu and strep testing, and school or sports physicals at select clinics.

When to choose ER instead: Difficulty breathing, severe dehydration, seizures, head injury with concerning symptoms, or any life-threatening condition requires emergency care.

What to bring: Insurance card, list of medications, and your child's medical history if complex. Comfort items for waiting are welcome.

Locations: Houston Heights, Montrose, Spring Branch, Galleria area, and Washington Corridor — all with extended hours seven days a week.
