ADDISON, IL — With the 2026/2027 school year rapidly approaching, local parents in DuPage County are being urged to beat the late-summer rush for state-mandated health exams (see our full back to school health checklist). To help families meet impending deadlines, North Ave Immediate Care has officially opened its back-to-school physical and immunization services, offering both walk-in availability and scheduled appointments for students across Addison, Lombard, and Villa Park.

Meeting Illinois State Health Deadlines
In Illinois, updated school physical exams and immunization records are strictly required for students entering Kindergarten, 6th grade, and 9th grade. Furthermore, student athletes at all grade levels must submit an up-to-date sports physical prior to the first day of tryouts or practice.
“Every August, pediatricians’ schedules book up completely, leaving parents scrambling to get their children cleared for the first day of class,” says a representative from North Ave Immediate Care. “By offering walk-in-ready school and sports physicals, we want to provide an accessible, stress-free alternative for the Addison community.”

Walk-In Ready or Appointment Based
Understanding that families have busy summer schedules, the clinic has optimized its operations to prioritize flexibility:
- Walk-In Physicals: Families can drop in during regular clinic hours without any prior scheduling.
- Book an Appointment: For those who prefer a set time, appointments can be easily scheduled online to guarantee a specific slot.
The medical staff is fully equipped to provide standard school physicals, comprehensive sports physicals, and necessary catch-up immunizations (including DTaP, Polio, MMR, and Meningococcal vaccines) required by Illinois school districts
Local DuPage County Care
Families are encouraged to bring their child’s yellow immunization card and any specific health forms required by their school district. Exams typically take less than 45 minutes, with paperwork completed on-site on the same day.
