Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an appointment, or can I just walk into California Urgent Care Center for a rash?

How will urgent care treat poison ivy, oak, or sumac exposure?

What should I bring with me to urgent care to help diagnose my skin condition?
Bring a list of all current medications, any new soaps or detergents you've used, and ideally, a photo of the rash or lesion from when it first appeared.
Will urgent care provide a referral to a specialist if my skin condition is complex?
Yes. If we determine your condition requires specialized follow-up (like with a dermatologist or allergist), we can provide a referral.
