Physicians Premier Bulverde is a free-standing emergency room located west on Highway 46 near the HEB Plus. They are proud members of the Bulverde Spring Branch Chamber and are celebrating 6 years of providing exceptional emergency care to the Bulverde/Spring Branch area and surrounding communities.

Physicians Premier offers all the capabilities of a hospital emergency room without the wait or the crowd. Physicians Premier allows patients to access the care they need when they need it, saving time, money, alleviating concern and allowing for a healthier patient and community.

Physicians Premier is staffed by board-certified emergency room doctors, unlike many urgent care facilities. Nurses with years of emergency training immediately triage each arrival. The facility can handle any type of traumatic injury or illness, both pediatric and adult. It includes X-rays, CT scans, a full laboratory, and ultrasound.

The physician-owned and operated facility accepts all insurances and commits to work with the patient to make sure charges are billed appropriately with the least amount of out-of pocket expense. They also offer a discounted self-pay rate.
