24/7 Emergency Care. Our patients are first.
At Post Oak ER, our board-certified emergency physicians are here 24/7 when you need us. We welcome adults and children from Tanglewood with compassionate emergency care, no appointment required, and a team focused on making an unexpected medical visit feel clear, calm, and well supported.
Tell us a little about yourself and your emergency to begin your check-in.
Life around Tanglewood has its own familiar rhythm. An afternoon may mean a round of golf or time on the courts at Houston Country Club on Potomac Drive, while other days may include a walk or tennis match around Tanglewood Park on Woodway. Those are ordinary parts of the neighborhood, but they can also be the moments when an unexpected health concern changes the day.
Houston’s summer heat makes dehydration and heat-related illness a genuine seasonal concern, especially during outdoor activity; the Houston Health Department monitors heat-related illness throughout the warmer months. A sports injury, fall, or heat-related concern that becomes severe or does not feel safe to manage at home may need prompt evaluation.
That is where being close matters. Post Oak ER is on San Felipe Street, giving Tanglewood residents convenient access to an emergency room in Houston without traveling far from the neighborhood. When your condition needs a closer look, we can use on-site X-ray, CT, ultrasound, or laboratory testing as part of your emergency evaluation. Our goal is not simply to run tests; it is to understand what happened, explain what we are seeing, and help you feel confident about the next step in your care.
Some emergencies begin with a familiar symptom that suddenly becomes severe, unusual, or difficult to manage. Our physicians can evaluate these common concerns and determine the safest next step.
We evaluate severe abdominal pain promptly, with on-site testing and imaging available when medically appropriate.
We assess painful sprains and fractures, provide appropriate imaging, and explain the safest next step.
We assess sudden breathing changes promptly and begin appropriate emergency treatment based on your condition.
We evaluate unexplained chest pain promptly with physician-led care, EKG testing, and close monitoring when needed.
We evaluate high or persistent fever and provide timely care when emergency attention is appropriate.
We assess sudden or unusual headaches and determine whether imaging, medication, or further care is needed.
At Post Oak ER, we are proud to be close to Tanglewood and the neighborhoods that surround it. From our San Felipe Street location, we are also convenient to Briargrove, Uptown and the Galleria area, Highland Village, River Oaks, and nearby Memorial. Whether your day starts at home in Tanglewood, around Woodway, or somewhere nearby, we want emergency care to feel easy to find when something unexpected happens. Our team is here to listen carefully, help you understand what is happening, and guide you through the next step with calm, attentive care.
