I arrived feeling dizzy, disoriented, unable to answer simple questions. My coworkers drove me there because I couldn't drive. I also had muscle weakness. My temperature was 100.4. The doctor did some blood work to see what was going on. Meanwhile, a nurse began to put an IV in my arm and it was extremely painful. I cried because it hurt so bad. Blood was going down my arm and she began wiping it up with an alcohol and up to the area where the IV went in! That began to sting. The doctor came back and said the blood work came... read more

I went to the Premier Urgent Care in Woodway, TX and I checked in and the clerk told me to have a wait. Why sit down? I was called back not even a second after I sat down. Got into my room and a nurse and someone who goes over your medical history with you was in and a minute later the doctor was looking at my wrist and he said X-ray would be in. I thought it was going to take hours. 5 minutes later, X-ray walks in and takes pictures and sends them off. The nurse walked in 10 minutes later with a splint and instructions to g... read more

$700 to remove a splinter. $700 - we can’t afford to come back to your facility.

The service is great, but please know that you need to check to see if the individual doctor treating you is in network, rather than the facility. The treatment was in November 2017 and I received a statement for payment in June 2018. It has been requested that Premier ER code the claim as facility rather than the doctor and they refused. What’s even more frustrating is I was treated in Urgent Care rather than ER by a nurse practitioner and I’m guess he’s assigned under the doctor. So just know when you go to ask if your ins... read more

Be ready for them to over bill your health insurance. Charged over $2000 for an allergic reaction. Bills at an ER rate when it should be urgent care. You've been warned. 

Business response:

We are both an ER and Urgent Care under one roof. Although 70 percent of our patients are able to utilize only the urgent care, some conditions will require ER treatment, especially if they are deemed life-threatening. If you had any confusion about this during your visit, please do not hesitate to call us directly and we can work with you on your bill. Thank you for leaving valuable feedback.
