Specialist Referrals

For cases needing long-term care or surgery, we connect you with expert orthopedic specialists for follow-up.

Our primary goal is to minimize pain, restore your mobility, and ensure you recover as safely and efficiently as possible.

When to Seek Emergency Orthopedic Care

Certain orthopedic injuries require urgent attention in an emergency room setting to avoid complications. Visit Village Emergency Centers if you experience any of the following:

Severe pain, swelling, or inability to move a joint or limb
A visibly deformed or misaligned limb
Open fractures where the bone breaks through the skin
Numbness or tingling in the affected area
Difficulty walking or bearing weight on an injured leg

For any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to walk-in to one of our ER locations for an immediate evaluation.

Immediate vs. Follow-Up Orthopedic Care

While we treat urgent orthopedic injuries in our ER and urgent care facilities, follow-up care is often required to ensure full recovery. After the initial treatment, we may recommend ongoing care with an orthopedic specialist, particularly for complex injuries like fractures or torn ligaments. We will work with you to create a personalized care plan to support your healing process.

FAQs About Falls and Injury

Injury or existing medical conditions can wreak havoc on any one of these components, requiring emergency care. The most common complaints are:
– Dislocated joints
– Fractures or breaks
– Back injuries
– Sprains
– Torn ligaments
– Tendon tears, such as rotator cuff or Achilles tendon
– Complications from joint conditions like arthritis and bursitis
– Complications due to bone deformities, infections, and tumors
– Acute joint pain and inflammation
This list is by no means comprehensive, but it gives you a good idea of what constitutes an orthopedic emergency.

There are many reasons why you would need emergency orthopedic care at Village Emergency Centers, including:
– Sports injuries
– Falls
– Car accidents or other trauma
– A flare-up of an existing disease, such as osteoarthritis
– Strain or overextension
Whatever the cause, if you’re experiencing moderate to severe pain and your mobility is compromised, it’s well worth a visit to Village Emergency Centers.

Your Village ER doctor usually starts with your medical history or description of the accident. Next, the doctor conducts a physical examination, including diagnostic testing such as X-rays or blood tests, to determine a diagnosis.
Your Village Emergency Centers doctor then devises a customized treatment plan. Many orthopedic cases can be treated without the need for surgery, relying instead on corrective measures, but in more serious emergency cases, surgery might be the best option. If this is the case, your doctor relieves your current symptoms, stabilizes the injury or problem, and refers you to an orthopedic specialist for further care.
If the doctor is able to treat you at the emergency room, a number of techniques may be used depending upon your problem. These treatments include:
– Braces
– Slings
– Bandaging
– Casts
– Pain medication
– Compression bandages

If surgery is required, we will stabilize your injury and refer you to a trusted orthopedic surgeon for follow-up care.

What Our Patients are Saying About Our Emergency Care Services

Amy Trim

League City

“This emergency room is absolute AMAZING. Both my husband & I have been treated here & have had phenomenal experiences. They always treat you with love & respect. They run all of the tests that are needed, but they don’t add a bunch of unnecessary test. We all know that doctors are human, but sometimes I think some doctors forget that but not at Clear Creek Emergency Room. Dr. Luna, Dr. Cruz, and Rommel, RN are amazing!”

Everything was explained to me and I am happy to know there’s a place like this Jersey Village ER. Hopefully, I will not need to return but if I need to I know I will get great care. Thank you Dr Luna and staff.”
