Treating you like family for nearly forty years

MedHelp was founded in 1982 as an urgent care and family practice in Birmingham.

Since then, we’ve expanded to five convenient locations in the Birmingham metro area, so you can be sure that there’s a MedHelp urgent care clinic near you. To better serve your busy schedule, we have extended weekday hours at each of our clinics. And because illnesses and injuries never take the day off, we’re even open on Saturday and Sunday.
