Hurst's approximately 38,000 residents are served by a community known for North East Mall and the Pipeline Road business corridor. What Hurst doesn't have is a 24/7 freestanding emergency room with a full in-house laboratory. The nearest hospital ER can mean hours of waiting for lab results; Hurst-area urgent cares typically close by evening and send tests out to third-party labs, with results taking a day or more.
That's why so many Hurst residents rely on ER Of Fort Worth at 4561 Heritage Trace Parkway — just 15 miles from Hurst via Hwy 121 & I-820. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
