We do not offer emergency room reservations. However, by using our "On my way" feature either via the Sharp app or on sharp.com you can provide preliminary check-in details and alert us that you're coming. This helps minimize your check-in time and prepares our team for your arrival.
After choosing an estimated arrival time, you'll submit a form detailing your information and symptoms.
We do our best to expedite check-in but wait times may increase when patients with more life-threatening conditions must be treated first.
