Recognizing When to Seek Emergency Illness Care

It is not always easy to determine what constitutes an emergency medical situation. Some illnesses will come and go; sometimes seasonal allergies or even a common cold can make your circumstances feel more dire than they really are; and other times, it is necessary to visit an emergency room right away. When your situation occurs in the middle of the night and you cannot reach a family physician, it can make matters worse. However, a quick call or visit to an Exceptional Emergency Center near you can help clear any doubts and address any serious issues. Your health is not something that should be taken for granted, nor should you dismiss any concerns. We will gladly diagnose and treat:

  • Acute illness flu symptoms
  • Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI)
  • Yeast infections
  • Stomach flu
  • Sinus infections
  • Urinary tract infections (UTI)
  • Staph infections
  • Kidney infections
  • Ear infections
  • Viral infections
  • Bronchitis
  • Fever
  • Pneumonia
  • Allergic reactions
  • Headaches
  • Migraines
  • Asthma
  • Foodborne illness

Our Team Provides Expert Lab and Imaging Services

For some illnesses or ailments, the experts at Exceptional Emergency Center may need to utilize advanced medical equipment that we have available at each of our offices throughout Texas. Our laboratory services include testing to diagnose various infections, illnesses, or diseases. We also have imaging technology that allows us to perform full-body scans to pinpoint more serious concerns or conditions. Each of our doctors is highly trained and will endeavor to diagnose your ailment using our state-of-the-art resources quickly.

We Also Provide Advice for Ongoing Medical Conditions

 

Not all illnesses and diseases are sudden, but that does not mean our specialized team cannot assist with whatever ails you. The medical professionals at Exceptional Emergency Center are well-versed in the field of chronic illnesses, as well. Our acute care for children and adults includes specialty consultations for individuals who need advice for ongoing health conditions such as terminal illnesses. We will help you understand your condition, what to expect in the coming weeks and months, and ways to improve your outlook. Schedule a time to meet with us that fits your schedule so that we can go over details of your illness. We have full-time physicians in Texas available at all hours of the day for your convenience.

We are available in your time of need to provide comfort and treatment when your family physician is not.

To be sure that we are never far from where you are, we have facilities in Fort Worth, Livingston, Brownsville, Sachse, Harlingen, Port Arthur, Beaumont, Amarillo, Orange, and Lubbock.

COVID-19 TESTING UPDATE:

The Exceptional Emergency Room staff and physicians care about you and your loved ones. We are here 24/7 for all your emergency care needs.

  1. If you are experiencing fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, weakness, numbness, sensory loss, or any other emergent medical problems, please call 911 or seek medical care immediately at your nearest Emergency Room.
  2. To provide the highest quality emergency medical care to our communities, we are directing all routine COVID testing to outpatient community resources.
  3. Testing through local resources, including your primary care doctor, urgent care, walk-in clinic, or local health department, is appropriate under the following circumstances:
    1. If you have been exposed to a person known to have COVID, and you do not have symptoms, we recommend that you self-quarantine at home and seek testing 4-5 days after exposure. It often takes this long for the infection to be detected by routine lab testing.
    2. If you have no symptoms or very mild symptoms, outpatient testing is also typically appropriate.
    3. Please follow this link for local COVID testing resources.
  4. If you have tested negative, you should still self-quarantine for 14 days from the day of suspected exposure as it can take anywhere from 2-14 days to come down with symptoms of this infection.
  5. Please kindly limit your phone time with our Emergency Rooms as the phone lines are needed to communicate with other health care entities and to provide patients their test results. Thank you for your understanding during this trying time.
