Urgent care clinics?

[Anonymous]

What are the good urgent care clinics/walk-in clinics near Seven corners area? We just moved to town Sunday and my infant needs to be seen for a probable ear infection.

Arlington Urgent Care is reasonably near there -- 601 S. Carlin Springs Road, just off Route 50. We've been multiple times with our DS and had good experiences.

I swear by the MinuteClinics inside CVS. My kids' pediatrician actually recommended we try them for simple things like ear infections or sore throats and it's such a pleasure. You walk in and are seen within minutes, the nurse practitioners we've encountered have all been great, and they are able to diagnose and prescribe on the spot. Plus, no extra trip to the pharmacy. They can't do xrays but other than that, they can do most of what the urgent care centers can do. And they are pretty inexpensive.

You probably already found somewhere, but I like Old Dominion Urgent Care. It's on the Arlington/Mclean border, probably 15 minutes from 7 corners.

Check, but I do not believe Minute Clinic sees infants under 18 months.

The ones near DC often have very long waits....
