Orthopedic Urgent Care Options

If you have a simple accident / injury that needs evaluating and x-ray but not a full Emergency Room….

• Bone & Joint Center (Albany)

• Ortho NY (Albany, Saratoga, Schenectady)

Urgencies / Emergencies

For infants and young children who truly need Emergency room services, I generally recommend ER rather than an urgent care. Albany Med or Glens Falls are the two main choices for kids in the area.

If it something that seems more straightforward but needs to be seen in person and just can't wait until I return, Urgent Care is probably fine. Malta Med is consistently well-reviewed.
