Virtual Care Need follow-up care after your Emergency Department visit? We recommend you follow-up with your primary care provider after an ED visit, but if access is not available, we are here to help with non-emergent appointments. You can schedule a virtual visit with one of our emergency trained providers. To be eligible for a visit you must meet the following criteria: you were discharged from a Corewell Health (Spectrum Health) ED in the last 72-hours & you are at least 18 years-old.

Ultrasound We make it a priority to quickly and correctly ascertain an injury or medical problem using advanced ultrasound technology when possible. ECS physicians are specifically trained to use ultrasound technology to diagnose injuries where conventional methods of determination might take too long, require too much time to prepare, or introduce greater risk to the patient.

Observation Some emergency department visits require a slightly extended observation stay. These patients frequently require services beyond their initial emergency care to determine the need for extended hospital stays. ECS observation specialists provide high-quality and efficient care to patients to help determine a necessary inpatient stay and decrease unnecessary inpatient admissions.
