24 Hour No Wait Emergency Room for Kids
Parents may think their children need to be treated at a designated children’s emergency room (ER), but The Emergency Center’s board-certified ER physicians are just as equipped to address pediatric emergencies as doctors at those facilities.
The Emergency Center offers extra bonuses parents will appreciate, including:
- 24 hour emergency room – children can suffer an injury or become sick unexpectedly. Our ER physicians can provide the best care, regardless of the time of day.
- a calmer, less stressful environment than children would experience in a traditional hospital ER
- goody bags for kids to help ease their anxieties
- onsite imaging and diagnostic services so conditions can be diagnosed quickly
- advanced pediatric life support for serious, life-threatening emergencies
- in-house pharmacy services so parents can go directly home—no stopping to pick up a prescription with a sick child
- follow-up telemedicine that saves parents yet another trip

- abdominal pain
- asthma flare-ups and allergies
- earaches, eye infections, and respiratory illnesses, such as colds and the flu
- fever
- injuries, including sprained ankles, broken bones and concussions
Reviews of The Emergency Center’s Children’s ER Services
“Rushed my little boy in after having an accident that caused a small bleeding gash in the middle of his forehead. The WHOLE staff was amazing! They worked with our insurance and showed nothing but kindness to not only myself but my scared 2-year-old. The nurses were patient and kind. One nurse gave him a popsicle to calm him down, while the other turned on Disney Jr. The receptionist gave him a small ball for his troubles, and the doctor reassured us he would be fine! Would recommend this center to EVERYONE! 10 stars, hands down! Thank you Emergency Center for your time and service. Y’all are AWESOME!”

The Emergency Center was very thorough when looking at my son. The staff was courteous and considerate when my son needed it quiet and dark. They showed us images and explained his diagnosis. They got right to us— I was very impressed.” —Kimberly
