If i don't have insurance what hospital emergency room can i go to for decent care?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Any emergency room: They are all required by federal law to provide emergency medical care regardless of whether someone has insurance. However, you will still be responsible for the bill. If it is not life-threatening or a true emergency, i would recommend visiting a regular physician or a public health clinic. It's a lot cheaper.
