The short answer
Ambert Medical Care Center's Miami Lakes office, at 15495 Eagle Nest Lane, Suite 100, sees patients from Hialeah for same-day sick visits and primary care. Miami Lakes borders Hialeah to the north, and the office is about 4 miles from Westland Mall. It's open Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm, and Saturday, 7:30 am to 2 pm. Walk in, or call (305) 556-0021. Every provider speaks English and Spanish.
A primary care office on Hialeah’s doorstep
Miami Lakes and Hialeah are neighbors. The Town of Miami Lakes charter names the City of Hialeah as its southern boundary (Town of Miami Lakes), and Hialeah’s own planning documents place Miami Lakes to the north (City of Hialeah). Ambert Medical Care Center’s main office sits on the Miami Lakes side, and for more than seventeen years it has looked after patients from both.
If your map app shows the address as Hialeah, FL 33014, it’s the same office. The building is in the Town of Miami Lakes, and Google Maps lists the 33014 address under Hialeah. Either way, it’s a primary care practice where you can walk in when you’re sick, book a checkup when you’re not, and keep seeing the same providers for the conditions you live with.

Walk in when you’re sick
You don’t need an appointment for a same-day sick visit. Walk in any time the office is open, Monday to Friday from 8 am to 5 pm and Saturday from 7:30 am to 2 pm, and you’ll be seen the same day by one of Ambert’s providers. A quick call to (305) 556-0021 first lets reception check you in before you arrive, which shortens the wait.
A same-day alternative to urgent care
A fever, a sore throat, an earache, a urinary infection, a stomach bug or a new rash: these are the problems people often take to an urgent care, and exactly the problems a walk-in visit here is for, with one difference: you’re seen by a primary care practice that keeps your records, can order blood work in the same building, and can follow up with you afterward. The emergency room is for people who are very sick, not mildly ill (CDC). Chest pain or pressure, trouble breathing, or signs of a stroke, such as a drooping face, a weak arm or slurred speech, are emergencies: call 911 (CDC, CDC).
Care in Spanish, from people who know the community
In Hialeah, 92.6% of residents 5 and older speak a language other than English at home, nearly all of them Spanish, and 74.5% of residents were born outside the United States (U.S. Census Bureau: QuickFacts, American Community Survey). At Ambert, all five providers and the front desk speak English and Spanish, so you can explain your symptoms, ask your questions and understand your plan in the language you’re most comfortable in.
Everything the Miami Lakes office offers
The Miami Lakes office is Ambert’s main office, and it offers the practice’s full range of care: primary care, annual physicals, ongoing care for diabetes, blood pressure and thyroid, blood drawn on site, allergy testing and allergy shots, EKGs, Pap smears and well-woman exams and the medical weight loss program. If you’re new, the new patient guide covers what to bring: a photo ID, your insurance card and a list of every medicine you take.
Insurance, including Medicaid
The practice accepts Medicare, Medicaid, ACA Marketplace plans and a range of commercial insurance. Hialeah, like all of Miami-Dade, is in Florida Medicaid’s Region I (AHCA), and most Medicaid members get their care through a health plan, so call with your card and reception will confirm that your plan includes Ambert. Our insurance page and the guides to Medicare and Medicaid explain the details. Ambert’s second office is in Kendall, and both are on the locations page.
