Frequently Asked Questions

Is Malta Med open all night?
Yes. Albany Med publishes 24-hour emergent-care access every day, although outpatient lab and imaging schedules differ.
Should I drive to Malta Med during a life-threatening emergency?
Call 911 for a potentially life-threatening problem. Emergency dispatch can determine the safest transport and destination.
