Everyday Emergencies We See in La Porte & Baytown
1. Pediatric Crises After Hours
From playground falls to tummy bugs, kids never time their illnesses. Our child‑friendly rooms and specialty team handle everything from broken bones to sudden infections. Learn more on our Pediatric Emergency page.
2. Upper & Lower Respiratory Infections
The Gulf Coast’s humid air and pollen keep coughs, sinus pain, and bronchitis circulating. Our doctors use on‑site X‑rays and lab tests to diagnose and treat these common issues fast. See our Respiratory Infection Guide for details.
3. High Fevers—Day or Night
A 103 °F fever can strike at 2 a.m. when primary‑care offices are closed. We cool temperatures, run rapid bloodwork, and rule out serious infection in minutes. Visit our High Fever Emergencies page to understand warning signs.
4. Sudden Allergic Reactions
Shrimp gumbo at a family cookout or bee stings in the backyard can trigger hives and breathing trouble. Our 24/7 supply of epinephrine, steroids, and oxygen therapy stops reactions quickly—see our Allergic Reactions resource.

Refinery work, port traffic, and home DIY projects all bring risks. Our Personal Injury service gives stitches, splints, X‑rays, and return‑to‑work plans—plus OSHA‑ready documentation for employers.
