Plan your visit with Find Urgent Care Now
Check approximate wait times and plan your visit with Find Urgent Care Now through the MyOchsner portal or mobile app.
Find Urgent Care Now let's patients choose an arrival time and notify their selected urgent care location before coming in. This helps the care team know when to expect you and places you ahead of walk-in patients who have not used the tool. It is not an appointment, and being seen at that time is not guaranteed. Ochsner urgent care locations still prioritize patients based on medical need, so those with more urgent conditions may be seen first. Your official wait time begins when you check in at the clinic.
Here is what sets Ochsner Urgent Care apart:
No appointment needed. Walk in at any location, any day of the week.
Extended hours with most clinics open Monday through Friday until 8 p.m. and on weekends.
Care for most ages. Ochsner urgent care locations across Greater New Orleans, Northshore, the Bayou region, Baton Rouge, North Louisiana and Coastal Mississippi treat patients six months and older. In the Lafayette area, clinics see patients one year and older. Pelican urgent cares care for patients ages 2 and older.
Connected care. Your visit records are accessible through MyOchsner, making specialist referrals and follow-up appointments seamless.
