Not sure where to go for care?
Express Care Clinics are not the right choice for wounds needing stitches or excessive bleeding! In that case, please visit one of our emergency rooms immediately. In non-emergency situations, you can also see a provider with a virtual visit from your laptop, tablet or smart phone using the MyClevelandClinic (TM) app.
Have questions about payment?
Most insurance plans are accepted. Payment, including co-pays, is required at time of service.
Online Express Care Options
In addition to Express Care Clinics, Cleveland Clinic also offers online express care options that you can access without having to travel to a facility to see a physician in person.
MyClevelandClinic ®
Cleveland Clinic Express Care virtual visits are simple, affordable online services that let you see a healthcare provider for nonemergency concerns via your smartphone (iOS and Android), tablet or computer. Once you are connected to your virtual visit, a healthcare provider will review your history, answer your questions and at their discretion diagnose, treat and even prescribe, when appropriate, medication. If you receive a prescription, we’ll send it straight to your pharmacy. Virtual visits on demand are available to patients who reside in Ohio, Florida or Nevada, age 2 and up.
