Urgent Care in
Surfside, FL
Walk in and be seen by a physician-led team, seven days a week, with on-site X-ray, labs, and ultrasound under one roof. Right here in the Town of Surfside, no appointment needed.
Walk in seven days a week. Most patients seen in under four minutes. Most insurance accepted.
Joint Commission AccreditedThe only one in Florida
Is there an urgent care in Surfside?
Yes. TrufaMED Urgent Care sits at 9445 Harding Ave, in the heart of the Town of Surfside, two blocks west of Collins. It is the only Joint Commission-accredited urgent care in Florida, with a board-certified physician leading every shift. Walk in seven days a week: no appointment, no membership, no gatekeeping. Most visits finish in 20 to 45 minutes.
A full clinic where Surfside walks every day
Surfside has no hospital or emergency department inside town limits. TrufaMED was built to close that gap: a full-service urgent care with on-site digital X-ray, an in-house lab, ultrasound, IV therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, and pediatric care, all on the main Harding Avenue retail corridor.
This is not a one-room walk-in. It is a multi-disciplinary clinic with a single front desk, a single medical record, and a single phone number, owned and run locally, not a franchise or a hospital outpost. For many Surfside residents it is within walking distance, and for the towers of Bal Harbour and Bay Harbor Islands it is a few minutes away. You leave with a diagnosis and a plan, not a referral.
Every urgent service you need, on Harding Avenue
Walk in for anything from a sudden fever to a suspected fracture. Each service below is available same-day, with no referral and no appointment.
Walk-in urgent care
Physician-led evaluation for acute illness and injury: fever, sore throat, UTI, flu, bronchitis, minor fractures, lacerations, pink eye, and migraine. Seven days a week, no appointment.
On-site digital X-ray
Digital imaging in-clinic for sprains, fractures, chest, and ribs, read by the physician the same visit, usually within about ten minutes. No separate imaging appointment, no referral list.
In-house CLIA lab
Our CLIA-certified laboratory runs strep, flu, COVID, RSV, mono, urinalysis, pregnancy, CBC, and basic metabolic panels, with most results back inside the visit. No outside-lab delay.
Ultrasound and EKG
Point-of-care ultrasound for abdominal, pelvic, and soft-tissue imaging, plus a 12-lead EKG for cardiac evaluation, both on-site at the Surfside clinic.
IV therapy and hydration
Medical IV fluids for dehydration, food poisoning, migraine, and heat illness, covered by most insurance when clinically indicated, alongside an elective wellness IV menu.
Pediatric urgent care
Children three months and up are seen every day the clinic is open: fevers, ear infections, strep, minor injuries, and school and sports physicals, in a family-friendly setting.
Hyperbaric oxygen
On-site medical hyperbaric oxygen therapy for post-surgical recovery, wound healing, and concussion rehabilitation. Sessions by appointment.
Concierge membership
For residents who want more than urgent visits, our concierge tiers offer a direct-access physician relationship with 24/7 contact, close to home.
Built for the neighborhood, not a national chain
TrufaMED is a locally owned, physician-led clinic, not a franchise and not a hospital outpost. The difference shows up in staffing, wait times, diagnostic depth, and how the visit feels from the moment you walk in.
Hospital-grade accreditation
The Joint Commission, the same body that accredits hospitals, audits our sterile technique, medication safety, and infection control every three years. One of only eight accredited urgent cares nationwide.
Physician-led every shift
A board-certified physician leads every shift. Dr. Uri Gedalia (Chief Medical Officer) and Dr. Shane D. Naidoo (Medical Director, Emergency Medicine) head the clinical team.
In the heart of Surfside
9445 Harding Avenue sits between 94th and 95th Streets on the main retail corridor. Bal Harbour, Bay Harbor Islands, and the north Miami Beach condos reach us in four to eight minutes.
Diagnosis on-site, not a referral
Most urgent cares send you elsewhere for imaging or labs. We run both on-site. A twisted ankle, a chest complaint, a sore throat: you leave with a diagnosis and a plan, and any needed medications are e-prescribed to your Miami-Dade pharmacy before you go.
Under four minutes to a physician
Our target is a total visit under 45 minutes for straightforward cases. Patients who use online self check-in typically see a physician within about ten minutes of arrival.
It feels like private practice
Cream walls, hospitality lighting, quiet exam rooms, and eight languages spoken at the front desk. Urgent care that looks and feels like a private practice, because it is one.
Same-day care for the everyday and the unexpected
Most visits fall into a predictable set of conditions, each handled with a physician, on-site diagnostics, and same-day results. If your concern is not listed, walk in anyway.
If your concern is not on this list, walk in anyway. A physician evaluation can clarify whether the issue is urgent-care appropriate, whether it needs specialist follow-up, or whether it belongs at the emergency department. We do not send patients home without a plan.
Kids are seen every day
Fever, ear infections, stomach bugs, sports injuries, rashes, and the occasional forehead laceration: our physicians care for children alongside adults, every day the clinic is open.
What we handle
Children age three months and up are seen routinely for acute illness and injury: fever, middle-ear infection, strep, hand-foot-and-mouth, viral rashes, mild asthma flares, allergic reactions, minor head bumps, playground cuts, and sports-related sprains. When imaging is needed, we X-ray on-site.
When we refer
Infants under three months with fever, any child with persistent lethargy, suspected appendicitis, seizure, or signs of meningeal irritation are evaluated briefly and routed to pediatric emergency services at Nicklaus or Joe DiMaggio. We do not keep a case that belongs in the ER, and we do not bounce a child who can be safely treated here.
Sports physicals, camp clearance forms, and school return-to-learn notes are completed the same visit when clinically appropriate. Bring the paperwork, and the physician signs it before discharge.
Clear pricing, no surprise bills
No insurance? A self-pay visit starts at $195 for a physician evaluation, with add-ons priced up front, so you always know what to expect before you are seen.
Starting prices; final cost depends on the services you need. See the full sheet on our self-pay pricing page.
Most major plans are in-network
Most commercial and government plans are in-network at TrufaMED Surfside. Our front desk verifies benefits at check-in and explains any out-of-pocket before treatment begins. No surprise billing.
We accept Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, and Medicare, among others. Oscar Health is accepted for emergent or complex cases and is out-of-network for routine visits; the front desk verifies coverage first. We are not currently in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Florida Blue, AvMed, Ambetter, or Tricare; we can still see you as a self-pay patient at transparent rates. A complete list is published on our insurance page.
When Surfside residents should go to the ER instead
Urgent care covers a wide band of acute illness and injury, but not everything. The findings below move you from TrufaMED to the emergency department at Mount Sinai, Jackson North, or Aventura Hospital.
Life-threatening emergencies
For chest pain, stroke symptoms, severe trauma, difficulty breathing, or uncontrolled bleeding, call 911 or go directly to the nearest emergency room.
Major surgery
We do not perform inpatient surgery, cardiac procedures, or complex operations. We can evaluate you and refer you to the right surgical specialist.
Labor and delivery
We provide OB and GYN ultrasound imaging but do not deliver babies. Please contact your OB or a hospital labor and delivery unit.
Psychiatric emergencies
For a psychiatric crisis or suicidal thoughts, please call or text 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, or go to an emergency department.
If the answer is unclear, walk in. We triage on arrival, and when the finding is ER-level we arrange transport rather than send you home.
Led by board-certified physicians
Our clinical leadership brings hospital-grade training in surgery and emergency medicine to a boutique walk-in setting on Harding Avenue.
Dr. Gedalia earned his medical degree from Louisiana State University and completed his surgical residency at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York. As Chief Medical Officer he oversees clinical protocols across all TrufaMED services. His surgical background means he can evaluate and treat on-site what would require a specialist referral elsewhere.
Dr. Naidoo leads the clinical team as Medical Director, board-certified in emergency medicine with deep expertise in adult and pediatric emergency care, trauma, and critical care. He completed his residency and emergency medicine board certification at Brookdale Hospital in New York, and brings calm, decisive judgment to every visit.
Every patient is evaluated by a board-certified physician. This physician-first standard is why TrufaMED carries Joint Commission accreditation, a distinction held by only eight urgent care centers in the United States.
Surfside urgent care questions
The questions our front desk answers most often, gathered from real calls and walk-in conversations.
Is there an urgent care in Surfside, FL?
Yes. TrufaMED Urgent Care is at 9445 Harding Ave, in the heart of the Town of Surfside, on the corner of Harding and 95th Street, two blocks west of Collins. It is the only Joint Commission-accredited urgent care in Florida, with a board-certified physician leading every shift. Walk in seven days a week, no appointment, no membership, no gatekeeping. Most visits finish in 20 to 45 minutes.
What are the hours of TrufaMED Urgent Care in Surfside?
Monday through Friday 9 AM to 9 PM, Saturday 11 AM to 11 PM, and Sunday 12 PM to 8 PM. These are the latest non-hospital urgent care hours in the Miami Beach corridor; most nearby walk-in clinics close by 8 or 9 PM. We stay open until 11 PM on Saturday, with a physician on shift every hour the clinic is open.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk right in?
Walk right in, no appointment needed. You can also pre-register at register.trufamed.com to cut your check-in time. Pre-registered patients are typically seen within about ten minutes of arrival, and the average door-to-physician wait is under four minutes for walk-in patients.
How much is an urgent care visit in Surfside without insurance?
A self-pay physician visit starts at $195. Add-on services start from: digital X-ray $120, EKG $110, and a rapid strep or flu test $60. The front desk shares your costs up front, with no surprise billing. The full sheet is on our self-pay pricing page.
What insurance does TrufaMED Surfside accept?
We accept most major commercial and government plans, including Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, and Medicare. Oscar Health is accepted for emergent or complex cases and is out-of-network for routine visits. We are not currently in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Florida Blue, AvMed, Ambetter, or Tricare. Self-pay patients are always welcome at transparent rates. Our front desk verifies benefits at check-in.
What conditions does TrufaMED Urgent Care treat?
Walk-in evaluation and treatment for fever, flu, strep, COVID, UTI, sinus and ear infections, bronchitis, allergies, rashes, minor lacerations and stitches, sprains and fractures, sports injuries, pediatric illness, school and sports physicals, DOT physicals, pre-operative clearance, travel medicine, and IV hydration. If your concern is not on the list, walk in anyway: a physician evaluation can clarify what you need, and we never send patients home without a plan.
Do you have X-ray, labs, and ultrasound on-site in Surfside?
Yes. Digital X-ray, a CLIA-certified in-house lab, point-of-care ultrasound, and a 12-lead EKG are all on-site at the Surfside clinic (CLIA #10D2326945). Imaging is read by the attending physician in about ten minutes, and most lab results come back inside the same visit. That is why most patients leave with a diagnosis and a plan rather than a referral.
Can my child be seen at TrufaMED Surfside?
Yes. We see children age three months and up routinely for acute illness and injury: fever, ear infections, strep, hand-foot-and-mouth, viral rashes, mild asthma flares, allergic reactions, minor head bumps, playground cuts, and sports sprains. Sports physicals, camp clearance, and school return-to-learn notes are completed the same visit when appropriate. Infants under three months with fever, or any child needing emergency care, are evaluated briefly and routed to pediatric emergency services at Nicklaus or Joe DiMaggio.
How close is TrufaMED to Bal Harbour and Bay Harbor Islands?
Very close. 9445 Harding Ave sits at the geographic center of Surfside, two blocks west of Collins. From Bal Harbour Shops it is about two minutes, from the Bay Harbor Islands residential blocks about five minutes, and from the north Miami Beach high-rises about eight. Sunny Isles Beach and Aventura are a single highway segment away.
Is TrufaMED really the only Joint Commission-accredited urgent care in Florida?
Yes. Joint Commission accreditation is the hospital-grade standard for patient safety, infection control, medication safety, and clinical documentation. The same body audits hospitals, and it reviews our protocols every three years. Fewer than eight urgent care clinics in the entire United States hold it, and TrufaMED is the only accredited urgent care in Florida.
Does TrufaMED Surfside offer mobile IV or telehealth?
Yes. Mobile IV therapy is delivered to homes, hotels, and offices throughout Surfside and the surrounding Miami Beach corridor. Telehealth visits are available seven days a week for concerns that do not need an in-person exam, such as refills, cold and flu symptoms, and follow-ups, at a flat $125 self-pay rate. Both can be booked from the TrufaMED website.
