BOTH OHKC WALK-IN Clinics Remain Open
In the case of unexpected orthopedic injuries, OHKC currently has two walk-in/urgent care clinics; one in the new NKC location and the other at the Centerpoint location.
Both urgent care clinics treat walk-in patients from 8am – 8pm Monday thru Friday without requiring an appointment. The NKC location is additionally open on Saturday from 8am – 12pm.
The cost of a visit at our walk-in clinic is the same as an office visit copay making it more economical than a trip to the emergency room.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
