Life Savers ER, the leading freestanding emergency room in Houston, was founded in 2015 by Dr. Foye Ikyaator. The clinic was created as an answer to the local community’s need for an emergency room in Houston without the typical long wait times found in other crowded emergency rooms. Since its inception in December 2015, Life Savers ER has provided care to over 10,000 patients, offering urgent medical attention for those in times of need. With three convenient Houston er locations, Life Savers ER serves as a prominent ER for local residents. We actively collaborate with local police, fire departments, and postal service workers, recognizing the importance of their services to our community.
