Urgent Care for Every Miami Beach Community
South Beach Visitors and Tourists
Miami Beach draws millions of visitors every year — and the combination of nightlife, heat, ocean activity, and unfamiliar food creates a predictable pattern of urgent care needs. Sunburn with blistering, heat exhaustion after hours on the sand, food poisoning from a restaurant meal, dehydration after a night out, lacerations from broken glass on the beach, and ear infections from ocean swimming are presentations our physicians see daily. TrufaMED is 8 minutes from South Beach via the 71st Street corridor — faster than most ER wait times begin.
Mid-Beach and North Beach Families
Families in the Mid-Beach corridor between 23rd and 63rd Streets and in the North Beach neighborhoods around 71st to 87th Terrace need a reliable urgent care that sees both adults and children. TrufaMED provides pediatric urgent care for infants three months and older, with the same physician-first model that adult patients receive. Strep throat in a second-grader, an ear infection in a toddler, a sprained ankle from the park — these do not require an emergency room visit, and they should not require a two-hour wait at a walk-in clinic staffed by non-physicians.
Hotel Guests
We coordinate with hotel concierge desks across Miami Beach, including properties at the Fontainebleau, Faena, The Setai, The Edition, and 1 Hotel South Beach. Guests who fall ill or sustain minor injuries can reach TrufaMED in minutes. We speak eight languages — English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hebrew, French, Russian, Creole, and German — and our front desk is experienced with out-of-state and international insurance plans as well as self-pay patients.
Convention Center Attendees
Art Basel, Swim Week, boat shows, tech conferences — the Miami Beach Convention Center brings tens of thousands of attendees annually who may need walk-in care for sudden illness, prescription refills, or injuries during events. TrufaMED’s extended hours (open until 9 PM weekdays, 11 PM Saturdays) mean attendees do not have to leave an event early to find care and can visit after hours when the exhibit floor closes.
Nightlife-Related Illness and Injury
South Beach nightlife generates a consistent pattern of early-morning and next-day urgent care visits: alcohol-related dehydration, nausea and vomiting that will not break, minor lacerations, allergic reactions, and respiratory complaints from crowded indoor venues. Our physicians handle these presentations with the same clinical rigor as any medical complaint — a full exam, labs or imaging when indicated, IV fluids if needed, and a discharge plan.

Common Conditions We Treat
From sore throats and ear infections to sprains, lacerations, and respiratory illness — our physicians handle the full urgent care spectrum with on-site diagnostics and same-visit prescriptions. Select a condition to learn more.
Pediatric Urgent Care for Miami Beach Families
Children get sick at inconvenient times — evenings, weekends, and holidays when their pediatrician’s office is closed. TrufaMED provides walk-in pediatric urgent care seven days a week for patients three months and older. A board-certified physician oversees every child visit, with an MD on shift whenever we are open.
What We See in Children
Fever evaluation, ear infections (otitis media), strep throat, upper respiratory infections, croup, stomach flu with vomiting and dehydration, minor lacerations requiring sutures, insect bites with allergic reaction, rashes including contact dermatitis and viral exanthems, and sports injuries including sprains and suspected fractures. On-site X-ray and rapid strep, flu, and COVID testing allow us to diagnose and treat in a single visit.
When Children Need the ER
Infants under three months with any fever require emergency evaluation. Children of any age with difficulty breathing, altered consciousness, signs of dehydration unresponsive to oral rehydration, or high-energy trauma (fall from height, motor vehicle accident) should go to the nearest pediatric emergency department. Our physicians identify these cases quickly and arrange transfer when warranted — but for the vast majority of pediatric urgent care presentations, the illness or injury is managed completely in clinic.
Pediatric Quick Facts
Why Miami Beach Residents Choose TrufaMED
Not all urgent care clinics are the same. TrufaMED operates at a clinical standard most walk-in clinics do not meet — and the difference shows in the quality of every visit.
01 · Accreditation
Florida’s Only JC-Accredited Urgent Care
Joint Commission accreditation — the same body that accredits major hospitals — audits our sterile technique, medication safety, infection control, and clinical protocols. One of just eight accredited urgent cares in the entire United States.
02 · Physicians
Physician-Led Care
A board-certified physician is on shift every hour we are open and oversees all patient care. Led by Dr. Uri Gedalia, MD (Chief Medical Officer, board-certified general surgeon) and Dr. Shane D. Naidoo, MD (Medical Director, board-certified emergency medicine). Meet them on our staff page.
03 · Languages
8 Languages Spoken
English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hebrew, French, Russian, Creole, and German. Miami Beach is one of the most linguistically diverse communities in the country — our staff reflects that. International visitors and residents alike receive care in a language they are comfortable with.
04 · Open Late
Extended Hours, 7 Days a Week
Monday through Friday 9 AM to 9 PM. Saturday 11 AM to 11 PM. Sunday 12 PM to 8 PM. Evenings, weekends, and holidays — when your primary care physician’s office is closed and the ER wait is three hours, TrufaMED is open with minimal wait.
05 · On-Site Diagnostics
X-Ray, Labs, and Results Same Visit
Digital X-ray, point-of-care ultrasound, and a full rapid-testing lab — all on-site. Strep, flu, COVID, mono, urinalysis, blood chemistry, and CBC with results before you leave. No second trip to an imaging center or outside lab.
06 · No Surprise Bills
Transparent Pricing, Most Insurance Accepted

Urgent Care for Miami Beach Visitors
What Travelers Need to Know
If you are visiting Miami Beach and need urgent medical care, TrufaMED welcomes walk-in patients seven days a week without an appointment. You do not need to be a Florida resident or have a local physician. Our front desk will verify your insurance at check-in — we accept most major national plans including Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Humana, and Medicare.
Self-Pay and International Visitors
International visitors and patients without insurance are welcome. We provide transparent self-pay pricing at check-in so there are no surprises. Credit cards accepted. Our physicians provide documentation you may need for travel insurance claims or to show your home physician upon return.
Languages and Cultural Competence
Our clinical and front desk staff speak eight languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hebrew, French, Russian, Creole, and German. We understand the anxiety of seeking medical care in an unfamiliar city, and we work to remove language barriers completely. If your language is not on our list, we have access to interpreter services.
Hotel Concierge Coordination
TrufaMED works directly with concierge desks at Miami Beach’s premier hotels. If you fall ill at your hotel, the concierge can arrange transport or provide directions. For guests who prefer treatment at their hotel, our mobile IV therapy service delivers physician-supervised IV drips directly to your room — available for dehydration, hangover recovery, immune boost, and more.
Prescriptions for Travelers
Forgot your medication at home? Lost your prescription during travel? Our physicians can issue new prescriptions or short-term refills for most medications during your urgent care visit. Multiple pharmacies within walking distance of TrufaMED, including CVS and Walgreens, can fill prescriptions same day.
Visitor Essentials
When to Go to the ER Instead of Urgent Care
Most medical complaints that feel urgent are safely handled in urgent care — without the three-hour ER wait and the four-figure bill. But some symptoms require emergency department resources. Know the difference.
Come to TrufaMED Urgent Care For
Fever and flu-like symptoms, sore throat and strep testing, ear infections, urinary tract infections, coughs and bronchitis, minor asthma flares, stomach flu with vomiting and diarrhea, mild-to-moderate dehydration, back pain without neurological symptoms, headaches and migraines, minor sprains and suspected non-displaced fractures, small lacerations requiring sutures, insect bites and allergic reactions (without anaphylaxis), skin rashes, eye infections, minor burns, and prescription refills.
What Urgent Care Saves You
The average emergency room visit in Miami-Dade County takes 3 to 5 hours and costs several thousand dollars after facility fees. An urgent care visit at TrufaMED averages 20 to 45 minutes, includes physician evaluation, and costs a fraction of the ER — often just your insurance copay. For conditions that do not require emergency resources (CT scanner, cardiac monitoring, surgical intervention), urgent care is faster, less expensive, and equally effective.
Go to the ER or call 911 if you experience:
- Chest pain, pressure, or squeezing
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
- Signs of stroke — facial drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulty
- Loss of consciousness or altered mental status
- Severe allergic reaction with throat swelling (anaphylaxis)
- Heavy uncontrolled bleeding
- Compound fractures or visible bone deformity
- Seizures in a non-epileptic patient
- Suspected poisoning or overdose
- Severe abdominal pain with rigidity or guarding
- High fever in infants under 3 months
- Suspected heat stroke with altered consciousness
If you are unsure whether your condition is an emergency, come to TrufaMED. We triage every patient on arrival. If your condition requires emergency-level resources, we stabilize you and arrange immediate transfer to the nearest emergency department. The cost of a same-day physician evaluation is worth it when the alternative is missing a serious diagnosis or spending half a day in an ER waiting room for a condition that could have been treated in 30 minutes.
