Not all clinics are the same.

Broken bones and fractures
Kidney stones
Stitches and lacerations
Sprains and sports injuries
Migraines and severe pain
Infections and urgent medical concerns

On-site labs and imaging for faster answers
UrgentMD is Montreal’s only urgent care clinic staffed by emergency practitioners, with integrated labs and imaging under one roof.

Same/Next-day appointments. Real urgent care. No ER wait.

We’re incredibly proud to share that UrgentMD, Dr. Alan Azuelos and Dr. Jon Cooperman have been selected as nominees for the ProMontreal Entrepreneur Hub Awards — The Promies.

This recognition celebrates leaders who are making a meaningful difference in Montreal’s Jewish business community, and few embody that more than Dr. Azuelos and Dr. Cooperman.

From day one, they set out to build something different: a place where patients could receive timely, expert urgent care in a setting that is accessible, compassionate, and centred around the patient experience. Their leadership and dedication have helped transform the way many Montrealers access care, and we are honoured to see their work celebrated.

Congratulations to two remarkable physicians, entrepreneurs, and community leaders 👏

We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response to our Women’s Health Program announcement — thank you to everyone who reached out.

At UrgentMD, we believe women deserve timely access to experienced physicians and comprehensive care at every stage of life.

Under the leadership of Dr. Luis Monton, we are actively expanding this program with a growing team of specialists focused on supporting women through early adulthood, fertility, hormonal health, preventative care, and post-menopause wellness.

This initiative is about creating a modern, accessible approach to women’s healthcare — one that prioritizes time with patients, expert guidance, and continuity of care.

Over the coming months we will be introducing new services, additional specialists, and dedicated women’s health resources as this program continues to grow.

As many of you know, we launched our Women’s Health Program in December of last year. We’re proud to announce that Dr. Luis Monton will be spearheading this initiative at UrgentMD alongside a dedicated team of women’s health specialists.

Our program is designed to support women through every stage of life — from early adulthood through post-menopause. Whether you’re navigating birth control, fertility, hormonal changes, or general health maintenance, our team is here to provide expert, personalized care.

This is just the beginning. More updates, services, and resources will be announced in the coming months. Stay tuned.

Two years ago, we opened the doors to UrgentMD with a simple but ambitious goal: to provide Montreal with a better option for urgent medical care — one that is fast, compassionate, and built around the patient.

Since then, we’ve been incredibly proud to serve thousands of patients who needed timely care without the long waits of traditional emergency departments.

From professionals and families to international students and travelers, our mission has always been the same: deliver real urgent care, when people need it most.

But this is just the beginning.

As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue expanding our services, building new partnerships, and finding innovative ways to make high-quality urgent care more accessible in Montreal.

To our incredible team, partners, and the patients who have trusted us with their care — thank you for being part of this journey.
Here’s to the next chapter. 🚀

🚑 Emergency rooms are doing everything they can — and they should be focused on the most serious cases.

A recent Canadian report highlights that many patients visit emergency rooms for issues that aren’t life-threatening, and some end up leaving before being treated due to long waits — not because of a lack of effort, but because ERs are designed to prioritize the most critical cases.

ER physicians, nurses, and staff work tirelessly under immense pressure. Their role is to save lives — heart attacks, strokes, major trauma. They shouldn’t have to manage conditions that can be safely treated elsewhere.

At UrgentMD, we focus on urgent but non-emergency issues, helping:

• ERs stay focused on critical cases
• The healthcare system work more efficiently overall

It’s not ER versus urgent care — it’s about the right care, in the right place, at the right time.

The number of patients leaving Quebec’s emergency rooms without being treated is rising, reveals this MEI report. “These patients are not leaving because they feel better, but because the system is failing them,” says Emmanuelle B. Faubert, economist at the MEI and author of the report. “Tho...
