Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.
How we score
Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the clinic’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many patients have rated them, ranked against other New York walk-in clinics. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.7 from hundreds of reviewers carries more weight than a 4.7 from a dozen. Recency reflects how recently patients are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.
How much does a walk-in clinic visit cost in New York? (2026)
Cost depends heavily on insurance coverage, the type of visit, and whether it’s a general urgent care matter or a specialized exam. Green Card Medical Exams is the one clinic on this list where a specific reviewer-reported price is available.
| Job | Typical price |
|---|
| Immigration medical exam with same-day testing (Green Card Medical Exams) | Around $610 |
Figure sourced from a customer review at Green Card Medical Exams, verified August 2026. This reflects one patient’s reported experience, not a published rate card, and pricing can vary by required testing. General urgent care visit costs depend heavily on your insurance plan; confirm coverage and copay before your visit.

Frequently asked questions
How did you choose these clinics?
We started from every walk-in medical clinic in New York with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.
How often is this updated?
The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.
Which clinic is best for a minor injury like stitches?
+MEDRITE Tribeca Urgent Care and CityMD Fulton both handle stitches and minor injuries, with +MEDRITE holding the higher rating on this list for that type of visit.
Do these clinics handle travel vaccines?
Walk in Clinic NYC specifically stocks travel vaccines including yellow fever. Call ahead to confirm availability before you visit, since stock can vary by clinic.
The bottom line
+MEDRITE Tribeca Urgent Care is the safe default for most walk-in needs on its combination of speed and consistently strong reviews, while Walk In Clinic of NYC is the pick if you want continuity with the same physician. For anything specialized like immigration exams or travel vaccines, call ahead to confirm the specific clinic offers what you need.
