Pediatrics Urgent Care on Weekends and Holidays

September 29, 2009


MIT Medical (MIT) and Harvard University Health Services (HUHS) are partnering to provide additional pediatric urgent care coverage on weekends and holidays starting October 3, 2009. There will now be a pediatrician on site to see patients at either MIT Medical or HUHS Holyoke Center—the locations will alternate.

If your child has an urgent medical problem on a:

Saturday, Sunday, or holiday,

Call 617-495- 5711

In an emergency situation, call 911

When you call, the office may...

  • have you speak to a doctor or nurse
  • have you make an appointment for your child on the next business day
  • arrange to have your child seen that day by a pediatrician at HUHS or MIT Medical
  • direct you to a hospital emergency room

A pediatrician will be available at one of the two sites from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekends and holidays.

Please DO NOT go to either location without first calling to confirm where the pediatrician is working that day.
