Cleveland is home to world-class hospitals and nationally recognized medical centers. Yet many residents know the frustration of waiting weeks — or even months — for a primary care appointment. In the meantime, families rely on costly emergency rooms, long urgent care waits, or let health concerns slide.
At Health Express Urgent Care in Cleveland, we believe your health shouldn’t wait. Our primary care providers deliver the accessibility of a neighborhood clinic with the comprehensive services you’d expect from a larger health system. Whether you’re a professional commuting downtown, a parent in Tremont balancing kids’ school schedules, or a retiree in Old Brooklyn managing chronic conditions, we’re here to keep you well.

Cleveland’s communities are as diverse as its people. From young professionals in Ohio City and Detroit Shoreway to families in West Park and seniors in Collinwood, healthcare needs vary widely. Our Cleveland primary care clinic is designed to be flexible enough to meet them all.
Preventive Visits for Long-Term Health
Annual checkups, school and sports physicals, and age-appropriate screenings are the backbone of preventive care. These visits help identify risk factors early and keep patients ahead of chronic conditions.
Pediatric and Family Care
Families often juggle multiple providers. We simplify that with seamless coordination alongside our pediatric care services, making it easier for parents and children to be seen under one roof.
Managing Chronic Conditions
Cleveland’s urban population has higher-than-average rates of diabetes, hypertension, and asthma. Our providers offer long-term management plans, prescriptions, and consistent follow-ups so patients don’t fall through the cracks.
Acute Illness and Injury Treatment
From flu and strep throat to sprains and strains, our Cleveland location provides immediate evaluation and care. Explore the full list of illnesses we treat and our dedicated injury care services.
On-Site Testing and Diagnostics
Timely care requires timely results. Our providers offer rapid results through lab tests and screenings, eliminating the need for separate lab visits.
Immunizations and Seasonal Protection
Vaccinations, travel immunizations, and preventive care include flu shots to help keep families healthy through Cleveland’s tough winters.
Behavioral Health and Supportive Care
Primary care doesn’t stop with physical health. We also provide access to supportive resources through our behavioral health program, helping patients navigate stress, anxiety, and related conditions.
Public health data shows Cleveland’s population struggles with some of the highest rates of chronic illness in Ohio. Hypertension, obesity, and diabetes affect thousands of residents, particularly in underserved neighborhoods. Long wait times in hospital systems make consistent management harder, leading to preventable ER visits and complications.
Health Express Cleveland is built to close that gap. With faster appointments, regular monitoring, and medication management, we help patients stay ahead of chronic disease. By combining preventive care with accessible follow-ups, we empower Clevelanders to take control of long-term health without months of delay.
While Cleveland’s hospital networks excel at specialty care, their primary care pipelines are overburdened. A single appointment delay can cascade into higher costs:
At Health Express Cleveland, our patients get timely access without losing the connection to long-term management. This balance reduces hidden costs and improves quality of life.
