Your Transparent Choice for Affordable Urgent Care

At Nao Medical, we believe in healthcare transparency, ensuring you know exactly what you’ll pay for your care. Our commitment to affordable care means you’ll pay half as much as you would at urgent care centers owned by hospital chains or pharmacy chains.


In New York, most residents have deductibles, so visiting an urgent care center owned by a Hospital System or Pharmacy Chain can result in a hefty out-of-pocket expense of $240 to $280 that you will need to pay from your deductible.


Nao Medical is the #1 choice for people looking for transparency in health care. And our visit charges are almost half  those of Urgent Care owned by hospital chains and big box pharmacy chains.
