Urgent Care & Walk-In Visits on Sanibel Island
Fast, Reliable Medical Care When You Need It Most
Don't let an unexpected illness or minor injury ruin your vacation or disrupt your week. Coastal Healthcare provides premium urgent care services with same-day availability. Whether you are a resident, a snowbird, or visiting Sanibel for a getaway, we offer hospital-grade care in a calm, private setting with no long wait times.
Skip the Waiting Room. Get Treated Today.
Healthcare should be accessible, especially when you feel your worst. As a private, cash-pay clinic, we bypass the administrative hurdles of insurance-driven urgent care. This means you get a same-day doctor appointment (with a Nurse Practitioner) that starts on time and focuses entirely on your recovery.
Our immediate care clinic is designed for adults and families seeking quick answers and effective treatment. From rapid testing to prescription management, we bring expert medical care directly to you, in our clinic or via telehealth across Southwest Florida.
Please Note: We are an urgent care provider, not an Emergency Room. If you are experiencing chest pain, shortness of breath, or a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 immediately.
Accessible Care on Your Schedule
We fill the gap between primary care and the ER, offering a convenient solution for non-life-threatening conditions.
Walk-In & Same-Day Visits
We prioritize immediate access. You can book a same-day slot online or call us for walk-in availability. We treat you quickly so you can get back to the beach or your daily routine.
After-Hours & Weekend Availability
Sickness doesn’t adhere to business hours. We offer after-hours and weekend premium visits for urgent needs, ensuring you have support when most other local offices are closed.
Telehealth Services
Stuck in your hotel room or vacation rental? We offer comprehensive telehealth consultations for common ailments. We can diagnose symptoms and send prescriptions directly to a local pharmacy in Sanibel, Fort Myers, or Cape Coral.
