Physicians Premier: Emergency Care Service in Portland Texas
The robust and growing city of Portland, Texas is home to 19,000 residents and is host to a bustling local economy centered on the Coastal Bend industries and businesses. Considered to be the gateway into the greater Corpus Christi area and other suburbs further south, the city can be accessed through either the U.S. Highway 181 or the Texas Highway 35.
Once described as the most attractive and pleasant spot in Texas, the “Gem City of the Gulf” still provides a significant attraction for sportsmen, most notably in fishing. Areas such as Sunset Lake Park and Indian Point Park often get pier and wade-fishermen from all over the state as visitors. But the picturesque suburban atmosphere of Portland can only truly be appreciated by showcasing its safe, deluxe neighborhoods, its exceptional local education system, and top notch city services. It comes as no surprise then that the population of this city has been steadily growing since the early 1990’s. These growths also lead to the creation of more medical infrastructure to support the local community, namely the handful of emergency care clinics and private practices around the area that offer minor emergency care.
Emergency rooms are by and large the better choice for most emergency situations—mostly because an emergency room has the capacity to offer all the services that an urgent care clinic offers and also be able to handle more serious conditions that threaten life and limb.
Physicians Premier is a freestanding ER that is conveniently located along the northbound side of U.S Highway 181, right in front of Academy Sports—easily accessible to the growing population along the north shore and all the surrounding areas. Our upscale facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment and staffed with expert and passionate doctors. Whether patients come in with flu symptoms, or whether they come in with severe trauma, they can expect to be admitted anytime, be treated immediately and professionally, and receive the kind of care that far surpasses any urgent care clinic or emergency room in the area.
