Searching for an ER in Horizon City? For a life-threatening emergency, the answer is always 911 or your nearest emergency room. For urgent problems that are not dangerous, Virtual ER offers Horizon City another path: a video visit with a board-certified emergency physician, available 24/7 anywhere in El Paso County. That covers much of what sends people searching for an ER — infections, rashes, stomach issues, minor injuries, urgent medication needs — plus the judgment call itself, because an emergency physician can tell you whether your symptoms are safe to treat by video or need in-person care. Prescriptions can be sent to a Horizon City pharmacy, like the one on Montwood Dr, or to any retail or mail-order pharmacy you prefer. Horizon City is home to about 22,500 people, and our physical emergency room is in Bellaire, Texas — about 652 miles away — so we are upfront: here, Virtual ER is a telemedicine service, never a substitute for local emergency care.
