Adeptus Health operates First Choice Emergency Room, the nation’s largest and oldest network of independent freestanding emergency rooms. Based in Lewisville, Texas, FCER is part of Adeptus Health and provides neighborhood-access emergency care through freestanding facilities with on-site imaging and laboratory services, staffed by board-certified physicians and emergency-trained nurses, with locations in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. The network serves adult and pediatric patients seeking convenient, nearby access to emergency care outside traditional hospital settings. Public reports in 2019 noted the closure of FCER locations in Spring and Pflugerville, Texas, illustrating ongoing adjustments to its footprint.
