Back to School Emergency Care in Galleria/Memorial: We’ve Got Your Back, Houston

Why Do Pediatric ER Visits Spike in August and September?
Houston families are no strangers to the city’s intense heat, active schedules, and bustling school campuses. But this seasonal transition brings a surge in ER visits for children, and it’s no surprise why.
At our Galleria/Memorial ER, we most often treat:
- Respiratory infections and fevers from classroom exposure
- Sports injuries, including sprains, concussions, and fractures
- Asthma flare-ups and seasonal allergies

- Dehydration and heat exhaustion, especially during outdoor recess or after-school activities
