The Emergency Center Difference
No Wait 24 Hour Emergency Room Near You
The Emergency Center is a fully equipped freestanding emergency room staffed with board-certified physicians, ICU- and ER-trained nurses, Radiology Technologists, and helpful Patient Service Coordinators, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Our patients trust us with their emergency care when it matters most, leading to over 1,500 5-star reviews online.
At The Emergency Center, we believe in providing compassionate emergency care that is quick and efficient, allowing our patients to get back to enjoying their lives as soon as possible. We strive to make our services more convenient than those of a traditional emergency room, which is why we proudly take the “wait” out of the wait room. Our emergency centers are always open and provide patients with the same high-level comprehensive care they would expect from a traditional hospital emergency room, without the wait time. Since we have shorter wait times, patients have immediate access to emergency care, which is especially important for patients with life-threatening emergencies.
Our physicians treat every patient like they are the most important person in our facility, and take the time to deliver friendly, comprehensive, and compassionate care. We keep our billing process transparent and our patients will never receive a surprise bill from us.
