A Whole New Way to Treat Your Child

Little Spurs Pediatric Urgent Care was created because we realize that most patients waiting in the Emergency Room for treatment are not there for life threatening emergencies. For this reason, we have assembled a skilled staff, including Board Certified ER trained Pediatricians and pediatric providers. We are highly qualified to take care of your minor emergencies, and our wait time is less than the Emergency Room.

Thank You For Saving My Daughter’s Life.

When I brought my daughter to you last week, she had a high fever. I really thought it was just a virus, but she didn’t seem right to me and I decided to bring her in. Thank God I did, but more importantly, thank God that you realized she could have an infection and gave her an injection of antibiotics.

You are an amazing doctor and I thank you for saving my daughter’s life.

It is a great place for urgent emergency care. I bought my son in who had an ear infection and a pink eye. I was so worried and I didn’t have a long wait. I was attended by VERY friendly and polite staff. Every staff memeber I encountered that day was nice and very helpful.

I was VERY satisfied with the service there and my son didn’t have to wait long hours just to get seen. I love this and it is great!
