Central Illinois Urgent Care is an urgent care clinic in Lincoln, Illinois, part of a group of five urgent care centers serving Central Illinois. The Lincoln location treats adults and children over 3 months of age for non-life-threatening conditions, with extended hours seven days a week and no appointment necessary. Services include care for minor injuries such as cuts and sprains, illnesses including fevers, ear pain, pink eye, sore throats, sinus infections, bronchitis, pneumonia, allergies, stomach pain, urinary tract infections, rashes and poison ivy, plus on-site digital X-ray and laboratory testing, immunizations and flu shots, sports and school physicals, DOT physicals, COVID-19 testing, occupational medicine, and pediatric care.

The clinic was started to give Central Illinois and its surrounding communities access to health care in a timely and cost-effective manner, as an alternative to the long wait for a primary care physician or a trip to the emergency department. Its on-site laboratory, digital X-ray, and common prescription medications are intended to save patients trips to the pharmacy and other medical providers. The team is led by CEO and founder Dr. Paul Toofan. The clinic works closely with a patient's primary care provider where one exists, and with permission can share electronic medical records and digital X-rays with other providers. Diagnostic services are available seven days a week, 365 days a year, including some holidays.
The Lincoln clinic is at 602 Woodlawn Road, a short distance from Northwest Elementary School and roughly a quarter mile from Melrose Park and Exchange Club Park. Brainards Branch creek runs about a third of a mile away, and Lincoln Parkway is about six tenths of a mile from the clinic.
