Ohio State Express Care provides quick access to care for common conditions and illnesses. Our express care locations are staffed by skilled nurse practitioners in a setting that is convenient and typically less expensive than a freestanding urgent care facility.

Express Care at Outpatient Care East treats patients 6 months and older.

Conditions treated and services offered

  • Cold, flu and COVID-19 symptoms including cough, sore throat, fever and headache
  • Eye, ear, throat, sinus and respiratory infections
  • Seasonal allergies
  • Minor burns, bruises and cuts NOT requiring stitches
  • Insect bites and rashes
  • Painful urination and suspected urinary tract infections
  • Lab tests including pregnancy, strep and flu
  • School, sports and camp physicals and immunizations
  • COVID-19 vaccines and boosters for patients six months and older (must be scheduled in advance)

Diagnostic tools and treatments

  • Basic lab tests including pregnancy, strep, COVID-19 and flu

Express Care is not the right choice for suspected broken bones needing urgent X-rays or serious cuts needing stitches. Please visit one of our Advanced Urgent Care locations.

In addition, Express Care providers cannot treat life-threatening symptoms, behavioral issues, prenatal problems, complex health conditions or infants under 6 months. You will be referred to another provider or facility should you need care for these conditions and symptoms.

Appointments are required.

We accept most insurances. Self-pay visits start at $74 and physicals are $39.
