Please allow us to provide you an insight on the “First” Freestanding Emergency Room in Laredo, TX. At Stat ER we have more than a clear objective; we have a solid foundation when it comes to knowledge, skills, experience and operations in emergency room settings.
To really get to know us is to understand us…Our facilities are directed by emergency medicine practicing physicians and managers who not only have the knowledge and skills, but the many years of experience working in emergency department settings. Our managing physician partners have provided services at different hospitals in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Austin, Corpus Christi, McAllen, Harlingen, Eagle Pass and Laredo—just to mention a few. Our vast experience and a proven track record in providing absolute care and service excellence which is delivered to our patients sets us apart.
Where did the concept of Freestanding Emergency Rooms derive from?
The idea came about from Emergency Medicine Physicians who for many years practiced at traditional emergency rooms. These physicians wanted more autonomy in the care and operations of emergency departments. It was in 2002 that the freestanding emergency center concept began to evolve.
Stat Emergency Center facilities are strategically planned and designed with the best patient care services in mind. Our Board Member team is comprised of four outstanding Board Certified Emergency Medicine Physicians with many years of experience in caring for patients in various emergency room settings. As well as a top Corporate Executive who brings many years of experience in the financial operations of private and healthcare entities.

Experience is key to the care you receive…Bringing you Peace of Mind
In order to bring the best emergency room service, care and operations to patients in any city or county—whether you are a local physician or not, you must know emergency medicine and understand patient’s needs. We at Stat ER surpass the standard by having met all the criteria that the American College of Emergency Medicine set forth in emergency medicine care and service.
Many of our local physicians and leadership team bring immense knowledge of our local and surrounding communities’ needs. We are a well-rounded organization in which all input from our local physicians and staff is taken into consideration and mostly implemented to have a top-notch facility that meets the needs of our patients.
Our 24/7 hands-on approach for operating our facilities and providing a sense of ownership to our clinical staff and physicians is the fundamental difference. Our physicians are fully committed by venturing into a partnership with our organization. As vested partners they have a sense of independence in treating and consulting with patients in a more personalized level; ensuring that the highest quality in care and service is delivered to all patients. The majority of our physician team have set roots in the great city of Laredo. Our Medical Director has served the Laredo community for more than 35 years.
“Patients don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care!” This is evident in our approach and to which our mission statement reads: To assure that responsibility for life is met with the highest standards in care, respect, dignity and humility.
