Walk in today ¡ No appointment needed
A flu shot is one of the fastest things you can do to protect yourself this season, and you shouldnât have to wait weeks for one. Health Express Urgent Care gives flu shots at walk-in clinics across Northeast Ohio, with no appointment needed, seven days a week.
Getting your flu shot every year is one of the simplest ways to protect yourself and the people around you, and at Health Express Urgent Care it doesnât take weeks of scheduling. Our walk-in clinics across Northeast Ohio give flu shots seven days a week, so you can get one before work, after errands or on the weekend.
Our providers answer your questions about side effects and give the shot during the same visit. A flu shot can be added to a sick or injury visit, so you donât have to make a second trip.
The flu vaccine is updated every year to match the strains expected to circulate that season, which is why last yearâs shot doesnât replace this yearâs dose.
Protection takes about two to three weeks to build, so itâs best to get vaccinated before flu activity ramps up. Late summer through October is the ideal window, but a flu shot can still help later in the season. Flu most often peaks in December and February, and activity can run into spring.
If you already have flu symptoms such as fever, body aches, cough or chills, a flu shot isnât the next step. Walk in for a rapid flu test and treatment instead. See our Flu Treatment and Cold and Flu pages.
Most insurance plans cover the flu shot with no copay, because vaccines recommended by the CDCâs ACIP are a required preventive benefit under the Affordable Care Act. Bring your insurance card and weâll verify coverage before the visit. No insurance? Ask our team for the self-pay price before your visit. There are no surprise bills.
