For life-threatening illnesses and injuries, including chest pain, significant
shortness of breath, severe head injuries, and severe lacerations go directly to an
emergency room or call 911.
Our Injury & Illness Center does not replace the emergency room for life-threatening
emergencies. Instead, we are a quality resource for your unexpected non
life-threatening medical problems in a timely manner, without the prolonged wait
and high cost of an emergency department.
