 The Sanford Bemidji Walk-In Clinic will soon offer extended hours on weekend afternoons and evenings. Beginning March 5th, patients won't need an appointment to visit the clinic from 7.30 a.m. to 7.30 p.m. all seven days of the week. The walk-in clinic offers urgent and non-emergency medical care without worrying about an appointment. Many health needs can be met at a walk-in clinic including ear infections, fever, sore throat, bladder infections, respiratory problems, or allergic reactions. But any physical exams, checkups and routine care should be scheduled with your family doctor. Now, it's not required to be a current Sanford patient to receive care at the walk-in clinic.
