ANCHORAGE, Alaska — If you are unable to schedule an appointment with your primary care provider and have a minor illness or injury that can't wait, ExpressCare is a cost-effective alternative to the high cost and long waits of an emergency department visit.

ExpressCare provides convenient, high-quality, more-affordable care close to where people work and live with same-day visits, seven days a week with extended hours. Appointments can be scheduled online, so patients can find a time that fits their schedule. Providers will be able to treat common conditions as well as offer screenings and tests.

  • 1389 Huffman Park Drive, Suite D;

  • 17101 Snowmobile Lane, Suite 114, in Eagle River; and
