Samariterhemmet - Uppsala närakut
This is the place that you can go when you can't get a hold of anyone else!
Here you can find "Uppsala närakut". They are open from 7-23 and have drop in booking. You can find "Uppsala närakut" on the 6th floor of the Samariterhemmet building - you use the side entrance (the side closest to stora torget), go in through the doors and take the elevator up. Närakut is probably not the best place to go if you have a serious problem.
