Our Services
Urgent Care
Our urgent care services are designed for conditions that need prompt attention but do not require an emergency room visit. We treat sprains, minor fractures, lacerations, infections, fever, rashes, and flu-like illnesses. Walk-ins are welcome.
Patient Experience
What sets Brooklyn Health Center apart, according to patient reviews, is the combination of medical competence and genuine warmth. Providers are described as knowledgeable and approachable, and the overall atmosphere is welcoming rather than clinical and impersonal.

Navigating insurance can be complicated, and Brooklyn Health Center works to make it straightforward for patients. The administrative team is experienced with major commercial insurers, Medicare, and Medicaid plans commonly used in Brooklyn. Patients are encouraged to bring their insurance card to every visit and to contact the office in advance if they have questions about coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an appointment for urgent care?
Walk-in appointments are typically accepted. Calling ahead or using an online check-in system can reduce your wait time, but it is not required. Patients with more serious presentations may be seen ahead of those with minor concerns.
Will urgent care share my visit information with my regular doctor?
Most urgent care practices provide a visit summary that can be shared with your primary care provider upon request, helping to maintain continuity of your medical record.
What types of tests are available at urgent care?
On-site diagnostic capabilities typically include rapid strep, flu, and COVID testing, urinalysis, basic blood work, and X-ray imaging. More complex testing may require referral to an external laboratory or specialist.
