After Hours
On Call Providers
Our pediatricians take after-hours urgent calls from their homes after hours.
One of our pediatricians is available at all hours.
Most non-urgent questions regarding your child are best answered by your child’s pediatrician.
Our office team is glad to help with scheduling, billing, forms, and refills during business hours.
If you have an urgent question with a sick or injured child after hours, please contact our physician on call at
(361) 853-3222.
In the event of an emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
Do not wait for a callback.
Please do not use portal messaging for emergencies or urgent concerns. Portal messages are read only during regular office hours, so a message about an urgent problem may not be seen in time.
