Walk-In Clinic in Kendall, Open Weekdays and Saturday Mornings

Walk in on North Kendall Drive

The Kendall office is a primary care office that keeps its door open for people who are sick today. You don’t need an appointment: walk in any time it’s open, Monday to Friday from 8 am to 5 pm and Saturday from 8 am to 2 pm, and you’ll be seen the same day. A two-minute call first lets the front desk check you in before you arrive, so your wait is shorter. The office is at 10621 North Kendall Drive, Suite 101, near SW 107th Avenue; the Kendall office page has the map.

You’ll be seen by Roselia Alonso, APRN, the office’s family nurse practitioner, who has been a registered nurse in Florida since 2009. The front desk and the provider both speak English and Spanish. The Kendall office is part of the same practice that has cared for Miami Lakes for more than seventeen years, so if a sick visit turns into ongoing care, it stays here, with primary care in Kendall.

Coming from Kendale Lakes, Pinecrest or Cutler Bay

North Kendall Drive is SW 88th Street, one of the main east-west roads through Kendall. These are the driving distances to the office as Google Maps measured them on November 10, 2026:

Coming from	Distance	One usual route
Kendale Lakes	About 4 miles	East on North Kendall Drive (SW 88th Street)
South Miami	About 5.5 miles	Sunset Drive (SW 72nd Street) and the Snapper Creek Expressway
Pinecrest	About 6 miles	West on North Kendall Drive
Westchester	About 7 miles	South on the Don Shula Expressway (SR 874)
Palmetto Bay	About 7 miles	North on SW 97th Avenue
Cutler Bay	About 11 miles	Florida’s Turnpike, then the Don Shula Expressway

Some of the fastest routes use toll roads, and traffic on Kendall Drive changes the times a great deal, so check live directions before you leave. If you live in the north of the county, the Miami Lakes office is closer and takes walk-ins on the same terms.

Urgent care in Kendall, a walk-in visit, or the ER?

Most people who search for urgent care in Kendall need what a walk-in visit already gives them: a licensed provider, today, for something that’s miserable but not dangerous. The CDC’s advice on flu puts the line in the right place: the emergency room is for people who are very sick, not for people who are only mildly ill (CDC).

Walk in for a fever, a cough or a sore throat that won’t quit, an earache, sinus pressure, burning when you urinate, a stomach bug, a new rash or bite, or a flare-up of asthma or allergies.

Call 911 or go to the ER for chest pain or pressure, trouble breathing, stroke signs, bleeding that won’t stop, a head injury, confusion, fainting, vomiting or diarrhea that is severe or won’t stop, or any sudden, severe pain. The American College of Emergency Physicians lists these among the warning signs that need emergency care (ACEP).

Timing matters for flu in particular. Flu antiviral medicines work best when they’re started within two days of the first symptoms, and they need a prescription (CDC), so walk in early rather than wait out the week.

Heat, dehydration and the summer sick visit

South Florida’s heat sends people to a doctor every summer. The CDC lists the symptoms of a body that’s overheating: muscle cramps, unusually heavy sweating, shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches, weakness and nausea (CDC). Cramps tend to come first; if the heat keeps going, heat exhaustion follows, with cool, moist skin, severe thirst, dark urine, vomiting and a fast, weak pulse (MedlinePlus). Get out of the heat, sip fluids, and if you aren’t improving, walk in.

Some medicines make the heat harder on your body, among them beta-blockers, water pills, and some medicines for depression or ADHD (MedlinePlus). Don’t stop or change a medicine on your own because of the heat; talk to your provider first (CDC). If a stomach bug has left you dried out, the provider can check how dehydrated you are and whether IV fluids would help.

What happens at a same-day visit

1. Walk in or call. Bring a photo ID, your insurance card and a list of the medicines you take.
2. Check in. The front desk confirms your insurance and adds you to the line for the next available visit.
3. The exam. Your provider asks what changed and when, examines you, and decides whether a test would change the treatment, such as a strep or flu test when your symptoms point to one. If you need blood work, it’s drawn at the office.
4. The plan. You leave knowing what you have, what to take, and what would mean coming back. A prescription goes straight to your pharmacy, and you can ask for a work note.

Saturday mornings, and Sundays

The Kendall office is open on Saturday from 8 am to 2 pm and takes walk-ins exactly as it does on weekdays. Both Ambert offices are closed on Sunday. If something can’t wait until Monday, an urgent care center or the emergency room is the right call, and 911 for anything on the list above.

After the visit

Most sick visits end there. If yours doesn’t, because a fever keeps coming back, a cough lingers, or a test points to something longer-term, the same practice picks it up: a follow-up visit, an annual physical, or ongoing care for blood pressure, diabetes or thyroid problems. New to the practice? The Kendall new patient guide covers what to bring, the insurance page covers the plans the practice works with, and Medicare has its own guide.
