24/7 Emergency Room in Irving, TX
GI emergencies rarely announce themselves politely. Bleeding, obstruction, and gallbladder attacks get diagnosed here with CT and labs on-site, 24 hours a day. Median door-to-provider time is under 10 minutes.
Digestive diseases affect an estimated 60 to 70 million Americans, according to the NIH NIDDK. Most are managed over time with a doctor. The emergencies are different: internal bleeding, a blocked bowel, a gallbladder attack, or severe constipation that has become an impaction. Those escalate in hours, not weeks.
The tell is usually a sudden change: abdominal pain that sharpens, vomiting that will not stop, or a bathroom pattern that halts completely. When your gut changes its behavior abruptly, that deserves imaging, not another day of waiting.

Check-in takes minutes. Median door-to-provider time is under 10 minutes.
An emergency physician examines your abdomen and reviews your history.
Imaging finds obstructions, stones, and inflammation the same visit.
Relief starts here, with GI specialist coordination when ongoing care is needed.
We handle the acute side of digestive disease: GI bleeding, bowel obstructions, fecal impaction, gallbladder and gallstone attacks, diverticulitis flares, severe acid reflux and ulcer complications, and pancreatitis. CT imaging and full lab work run on-site, so the diagnosis lands the same visit, and treatment, from IV fluids and pain control to antibiotics, starts before you leave.
When the emergency overlaps with something you ate, our food poisoning workup covers it. When surgery or a scope is needed, we stabilize you and coordinate directly with the right specialist, records in hand.
Both have a role. Here is how to pick tonight.
Bleeding, obstruction signs, severe pain, or any warning card above. We rule out the dangerous causes tonight.
Chronic reflux, IBS management, screening colonoscopies, and long-term condition care.
Black stools, a belly that stops moving, or pain that keeps climbing. Hours matter.
When days without a bowel movement come with belly pain, bloating, vomiting, or the inability to pass gas. That combination can mean fecal impaction or a bowel obstruction, both of which need imaging and treatment rather than another laxative at home.
Cramping waves of belly pain, a swollen abdomen, vomiting, and no stool or gas passing. Symptoms often build over hours. An obstruction can cut off blood flow to the bowel, so these signs need a CT scan the same day, not a wait-and-see approach.
Treat it as one until proven otherwise. Bright red blood, black tarry stools, or coffee-ground vomit all point to bleeding somewhere in the digestive tract. We check blood counts and vital signs immediately and find the source before it becomes dangerous.
Intense pain in the upper right belly, often after a fatty meal, sometimes radiating to the right shoulder or back, with nausea. Attacks that last more than a few hours, or come with fever or yellowing skin, need same-day evaluation and imaging.
We accept most major insurance plans, and federal law requires insurers to cover emergency visits based on your symptoms, not the final diagnosis. Our team can also discuss self-pay options at check-in.
