Whether your child’s symptoms appear suddenly or worsen rapidly, we deliver precise and gentle care when it matters most.
When Should You Visit Our Pediatric Emergency Room?
Children often can’t describe how they feel, so parents must watch for warning signs that require immediate pediatric emergency care. Bring your child to our pediatric ER right away if they experience:
- Difficulty breathing or wheezing
- Persistent vomiting or diarrhea
- Seizures or unresponsiveness
- High fever unrelieved by medication
- Severe abdominal pain or dehydration
- Deep cuts, broken bones, or head injury
- Allergic reactions with swelling or rash
Pediatric Emergency Treatment – ER vs. Urgent Care
While urgent care clinics can handle minor illnesses, true emergencies need the advanced care of a pediatric Emergency Room. Our Emergency Room for pediatrics offers immediate access to diagnostic imaging, medications, and monitoring that urgent care centers cannot provide.
Austin Emergency Center – Mueller ensures:
- On-site pediatric imaging (X-ray, ultrasound) for fast results
- Child-appropriate medications and IV fluids
- 24/7 observation for severe or worsening symptoms
- Collaboration with pediatric specialists for complex cases

- Bring identification, insurance, and any allergy or medication lists.
- Note your child’s recent symptoms, when they began, and how they’ve changed.
