I thought that one shut down years ago---there is the new one in Clarendon now.

A new place is now open in Capitol Hill...the place and staff are wonderful and looks almost the same as the one in Cleveland Park. I don't think their website works or maybe is under construction. Check them below.

From google search - a new place METRO IMMEDIATE & PRIMARY CARE SILVER SPRING down town silver spring 8484 GEORGIA AVE. I am not sure when when they will open... however more options, hopefully good ones... and less waiting time.

CVS has many mintue clinics---have used them in the District for strep tests.

Last time we went to CVS we were told to go and see and the doctor. They recommended DC Immediate and primary care. Such a wonderful experience!!!

I have been to DC Immediate & Primary Care in Cleveland Park and Metro Immediate & Primary Care in Capitol Hill for my kid and myself. Both places are great!!!

However I recommend calling ahead both places to find out waiting time. My son was not feeling well so we decided to Metro Immediate & Primary Care. He had strep throat. We were in and out within 40 min.

My husband goes here sometimes. Haven't used it for kids but I really liked this place--very clean and professional.

You could also see if CVS has a Minute Clinic somewhere metro accessible? The ones I've been to have been out in VA, away from metro stops, so I can't recommend one in particular, but I have had really good experiences with Minute Clinic in general. They only take kids over 18 months, I think, though so it will depend on how old your DS is?

Also, depending on where you are located, you could try Heidi Johnson at House Calls on the Hill (202.306.5862). She is a pediatric nurse practitioner who, as the name suggests, makes house calls on Capitol Hill. We have used her many times and she is awesome!

I can't get an appt to see my doctor and need to take DS somewhere today. Does anyone know of a pediatric urgent care in downtown DC or somewhere in DC near a metro? We have no car at the moment so it needs to be metro or bus accessible.

Thanks.
