Victoria General Hospital, located at 2340 Pembina Highway in south Winnipeg, Manitoba, operates a 24/7 Urgent Care centre designed for non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries. Founded in 1911 and operating at its current Fort Richmond location since 1971, this 194-bed community hospital is a division of the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority (WRHA) and is Winnipeg's leading mental health crisis and addictions centre. Patients with life-threatening emergencies should call 911 or proceed to a full emergency department such as HSC Winnipeg or St. Boniface Hospital.
Paid public parking is available 24/7 at the front of the hospital, accessible from Pembina Highway or Dartmouth Street. Parking pay stations accept coins, bills, and credit cards — exact change required as machines do not provide change. Stations are located inside the main entrance, Urgent Care entrance, and Buhler Cancer Centre entrance. Handicap parking is available in both the front and Urgent Care lots. Weekly passes ($40) are available at parking machines; monthly passes ($90) are available through the Foundation (Mon–Fri, 8:30 a.m.). Two-hour free street parking is also available on Dartmouth Drive beside the hospital.
Winnipeg Transit routes 60 and BLUE serve Victoria General Hospital. The nearest stop is Westbound Markham at Pembina, approximately a 5-minute walk from the hospital. The Southbound Southwest Transitway at Markham Station is about 538 metres away, roughly an 8-minute walk.
No historical wait time data is currently available for this facility. Generally, urgent care centres across Canada tend to be less busy during mid-morning on weekdays (Tuesday through Thursday). If your condition is not urgent, checking real-time wait times before heading in can help you plan your visit.
Without historical wait data, specific peak times cannot be confirmed for Victoria General's Urgent Care. As a general pattern, evenings, weekends, and holidays tend to be busier at most urgent care and emergency facilities. Arriving earlier in the day on a weekday may help reduce your wait.
Emergency departments use triage — patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.
Wait times are estimates based on Manitoba health data using historical volumes, current patient counts, and staffing. Actual wait times may vary.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
