About this department
Homerton Urgent Treatment Centre provides walk-in care for non-life-threatening conditions such as minor injuries, sprains, minor burns, and infections. The centre is staffed by experienced clinicians and can handle a wide range of conditions that do not require a full A&E department. Patients are triaged on arrival and seen in order of clinical priority. The UTC can provide X-rays, blood tests, and minor procedures. If you are unsure whether you need A&E or a UTC, calling NHS 111 can help you decide. UTCs are typically much faster than A&E for minor conditions.
