We Make You Feel Better Quicker
Watson Clinic XpressCare Highlands is a busy walk-in location designed to treat minor emergencies, illnesses and accidents and requires no appointment. Unlike most other walk-in clinics, our XpressCare facility is fully staffed by board-certified specialists and offers onsite x-ray and laboratory facilities for timely results. For your convenience, they are open after hours and on weekends.

XpressCare Highlands offers convenient healthcare for ages 2 and up. Children 2-18 years old must be accompanied by a legal guardian.
 
Watson Clinic’s walk-in care facilities have become leaders in providing rapid and PCR COVID tests to our community. As an added convenience, we now offer visitors the option of waiting in their car before they see a doctor or receive their test results. Visitors are provided this option at check-in and after their tests are performed, and then are contacted on their cell phone when it’s time to enter the facility again. Depending upon the visitor’s condition and personal preference, they may also leave the facility after their test, and receive their results later by phone or through their MyChart patient portal account.
 
Anytime you feel there is a life threatening emergency, call 911. Do not delay by calling the doctor’s office first.

No Appointment Necessary, Walk-ins Welcome
NEW PATIENTS ACCEPTED

XpressCare does not provide treatment for victims of rape, assault, children
under 2 years of age, or other serious medical conditions.
