Same-Day Services & Emergency Care
Learn about Same-Day Services for minor conditions for Veterans at the VA Salt Lake City Health Care System.
VA Salt Lake City Health Care System offers walk-in appointments for Veterans who receive their primary care through VA.
A Veteran with new onset symptoms can walk into primary care at the main medical center or any VASLCHCS community clinic without an appointment and ask to be seen. While you may not be able to see your primary care doctor, you will see a health professional that day.
Just walk-in let the front desk know you would like a same-day appointment.
