Children's Mercy Opens New Express Care and Orthopedic Injury Clinic in Kansas City's Northland

Children’s Mercy continues to expand convenient, high‑quality care for kids and families, closer to home, with the opening of a new Express Care and Orthopedic Injury Clinic in Kansas City. Located in the Liberty area near I-35 and 291 highway, this new location brings Children’s Mercy’s trusted pediatric expertise closer to families living and working in the Northland. 

The new location will be open to patients starting Monday, March 16. A second location is planned to open in Shawnee later this year. 

Designed for families who need timely medical care for common illnesses and minor injuries, this location offers walk‑in and online scheduling options with evening and weekend hours, times when other care options are not always available. The clinic is staffed by Children’s Mercy pediatric health care professionals who specialize in caring for children and teens. 

Express Care is designed for quick treatment of minor illnesses, while our Urgent Care locations provide a higher level of care for more complex—but still non‑emergency—needs. 

The Orthopedic Injury Clinic will be staffed by orthopedic specialists who can treat broken bones, strains, sprains and other orthopedic injuries. This location will also support follow-up appointments with Orthopedic and Sports Medicine providers, ensuring continuity of care for patients.  

“Families today need care that fits into their busy lives without compromising quality,” said Allison Gardner, DNP, RN, NE-BC, CPN, Vice President and Associate Chief Nursing Officer for Ambulatory Practice Ops at Children’s Mercy. “This new location allows us to meet families where they are, providing the same expert pediatric care Children’s Mercy is known for in a setting that’s convenient, accessible and focused on kids.” 

Express Care will provide treatment for conditions including: 

  • Cold and flu symptoms
  • Evaluation for RSV, COVID and Mono
  • Ear infections
  • Sore throats
  • Minor stomach illness
  • Minor cuts and burns
  • Other non‑emergency concerns
