Urgent care does not ask you to define your medical condition to decide whether to take you in or not. Have you seriously never been to an urgent care or ER? My mom is a nurse and at one time worked private duty. The woman who owned the agency had started our town's ambulance service. She said people would call for an ambulance for the most ridiculous things - once, famously, a hangnail. I would not worry so much about going to an urgent care. And if someone shows up at urgent care with a condition that is truly urgent (heart attack, compound fracture) they get sent to the ER anyway so you wouldn't be pushing out anyone who was in more dire straits than you.

I tend to doubt that an Urgent Care Dr will provide an Rx for Viagra, Cialis or Levitra.....simply because there are some contraindications involved and a "doc in a box" does not know your full history. I still say go see a urologist. See them once. Get a month Rx with 11 refills.

This. Any physician at an urgent care center that prescribes an ED drug to someone whose medical history is unknown to them is extremely irresponsible, and I think you will have a difficult time finding one who will do so.

I am not disagreeing with you but since the OP is looking for a script ASAP this is not an option. It usually takes a couple of weeks to be seen as a new patient by a urologist.
