Yes, our pediatric urgent care clinics can treat minor burns. If your child gets a burn, our urgent care pediatrics team will carefully evaluate the severity and provide appropriate treatment.

For more serious burns that require specialized care, we’ll stabilize your child and refer you out for advanced treatment.

First-degree burns are red, dry, and usually heal within a week. Second-degree burns often have blisters, look wet or shiny, and may take a few weeks to heal. If you’re unsure, bring your child to our pediatric walk in clinic for an evaluation, and we’ll make sure your child gets the right treatment and refer you out if more advanced care is needed.

If your child gets a burn, act quickly:

• Immediately place the burned area in cold tap water or gently pour cold tap water over it for at least 10 minutes. This helps reduce the depth of the burn and eases pain.

• Do not put ice on a burn, as this can cause more damage to the skin.

• If the burned area is large, cover it loosely with a clean sheet or plastic wrap to protect it until you can get medical help.

Once you’re able to, search “pediatric urgent care near me” and come into one of our clinics for burn care at our pediatric walk-in clinic

No, we do not perform skin grafts at our kids urgent care clinics.

A skin graft is a surgical procedure that replaces damaged skin with healthy skin from another part of the body. Children may need a skin graft if they have a deep or large burn that can’t heal properly on its own. Our children’s urgent care providers can help determine if your child may need this type of treatment and guide you to the right specialist.
