FAMILY EMERGENCY ROOM AT GEORGETOWN 24/7/365

Awelcoming, personal greeting in a comfortable waiting area awaits patients who come to Family Emergency Room at Georgetown. The goal of this premier health care provider located at 1210 W. University Ave in Georgetown, next to Walgreens is to provide personal, patient-centered care that combines a state-of-the-art facility with caring attention.

The beautiful facility, less than 15 minutes south of Jarrell, treats children and adults in a comfortable, private setting that truly puts patients first. From day one, the mission was to create a practice where patients receive the care and attention they deserve, directly from a Board Certified Emergency Physician. “I wanted to practice personalized Emergency Medicine in an environment that would allow me to spend as much time with my patients as needed. This is an exceptional facility that allows me to truly focus on patient needs while ensuring an effective treatment plan,” Dr. Ryan Prudoff says.

Dr. John Valentini, Dr. Prudoff, and Dr. Rick Daniels are Board Certified in Emergency Medicine and have more than 55 years of combined experience. They are well prepared to handle any emergency, from broken bones to heart events.

The facility is equipped with a CT scanner, X-ray, and ultrasound, as well as a full in-house laboratory equipped with a state-of-the-art PCR Rapid Testing, which detects 21 viruses and bacteria in about one hour. Comprehensive cardiac evaluations are performed utilizing Cardiac Coronary CT Angiography, which directly visualizes heart vessels and can accurately determine coronary heart disease without an invasive catheter procedure. “We are very fortunate to have Coronary CT angiography in our practice. It enables us to safely discharge patients home who present symptoms concerning for heart disease,” Dr. Prudoff says.

Dr. Valentini adds, “We ensure the highest safety standards for our patients and staff. Our facility maintains an exceptional standard of sanitation, including individual in-room and central HEPA filtration, UV and chemical sterilization, and fresh linens for every patient.”

IMPROVING EMERGENCY CARE

Doctors and staff take time to build rapport with every patient, and every patient leaves with the doctor’s contact information. “It is my hope that patients receive a level of care that will make stressful situations more comfortable. Patients deserve that personal attention. It was important for us to create a practice where clients have continued access to their physician. I enjoy talking with patients and giving them any support needed to facilitate their healing,” Dr. Valentini says.

Among the many 5-star Google reviews, high quality care is mentioned constantly. One recent review says, “This is by far the best ER I have ever been to in my life. Unfortunately, I’ve had quite a few visits to ERs…this one outshines them all. I actually don’t dread having to go to the ER because the experience is always so above par here.”

"We are honored to provide medical services to Georgetown, as well as Jarrell, Liberty Hill, and surrounding communities," Dr. Valentini says. "And to serve as a trusted community partner."

I took my daughter here for what I thought was a broken index finger. When we walked in, it was clean and the receptionist was very inviting and friendly. Registration was easy on the iPad. We were seen so quickly that I was still completing my daughter’s registration info. As we walked back I noticed the place was still exceptionally tidy (loved that). Nurse came in, tech came in, doctor followed right behind them. I was taken back by how well and promptly they attended to her for a little broke finger. She went straight back for X-rays. Discharge paperwork and what to do at home list was super simple and very reader friendly. We were in and out in under an hour.

Everyone at Family Emergency Room was incredibly kind and genuinely compassionate. From the moment we arrived and through diagnosis and treatment, we felt we were in good hands. Dr. Daniels is an exemplary physician who patiently listens, asks great questions, and is thorough in his effort to provide an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Best of all, he truly cares. The facility is clean and has all the modern equipment that is needed to diagnose and treat their patients. The entire experience was outstanding.

I have had to utilize this facility a few times now over the years and have had a great experience each time. I've never had to wait to be seen, and everyone I have encountered has been friendly and caring. Each doctor that I have seen always took their time with me, and never made me feel judged or rushed. I once had to call the day after a visit with some follow up questions, expecting to leave a message, but the doctor actually got on the phone with me to address my concerns. They seem to genuinely care about you and making you feel better.
