Care that shows up when you need it.
Accidents and illnesses don't keep office hours. UTMB Health Urgent Care in Texas City treats adults and children seven days a week — walk in any time, or hold your spot online and skip the wait. On-site x-ray, lab work, and a clinical team backed by the UTMB Health network across Galveston County.
01 — Our Clinic
A trusted extension of UTMB Health, right on the expressway.
No one gets sick on a schedule. When your primary care provider is booked, closed, or out of reach, our Texas City urgent care team is the next door you can walk into.
Built for the way Galveston County actually lives. Tucked along the Emmett F. Lowry Expressway, our clinic serves commuters, families, shift workers, and weekend athletes who can't pause their day for a three-week appointment wait. Doors open at 9 a.m. every single day — including most holidays, when we run a reduced noon-to-six schedule.
Every UTMB urgent care clinic treats both adults and children, so the whole family can be seen in one visit. On-site x-ray and lab services mean a twisted ankle or a stubborn sinus infection gets diagnosed and treated before you leave the building, not referred out to a second appointment somewhere else.
And because we're part of the UTMB Health system, your visit connects back to your primary care provider, your MyChart record, and — when it's truly needed — the emergency and specialty care across our hospitals in Galveston, League City, and Clear Lake.
