Urgent Care in Colorado Springs, CO

Colorado Springs is the second-largest city in Colorado, home to approximately 480,000 residents in El Paso County at the base of Pikes Peak — the iconic 14,115-foot summit that inspired 'America the Beautiful.' The city sits at an elevation of 6,035 feet and is one of the most military-dense metros in the United States, home to Fort Carson (U.S. Army), Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base, Buckley Space Force Base, NORAD/NORTHCOM, and the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) — a nationally ranked service academy north of the city on I-25. Colorado Springs also hosts the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Training Center (now the Olympic & Paralympic Museum), making it the home of American Olympic athletics.

Healthcare in Colorado Springs is anchored by UCHealth Memorial Hospital (the region's Level II Trauma Center and academic affiliate of the University of Colorado School of Medicine), Penrose Hospital and St. Francis Medical Center (both part of Centura Health, a Catholic system), and Peak Vista Community Health Centers (federally qualified health centers serving uninsured and underinsured residents). The military population drives significant demand for TRICARE-accepting providers and occupational health clinics. Walk-in urgent care is provided by UCHealth Urgent Care, Centura ExpressCare, Concentra (serving Fort Carson and local employers), AFC Urgent Care, MinuteClinic (CVS), NextCare, CareNow, and FastMed Urgent Care.
