Physician-supervised a preventive visit through TexasDoc. Start a visit to see if treatment is appropriate. A patient in Houston, Dallas, and the cities far from either one should compare a preventive visit with care already available through Houston Methodist, Baylor Scott & White, or UT Southwestern, not with a neighboring-state clinic, or a Houston system treated as if it covered West Texas.

What Annual Physicals & Health Assessments in Texas is

How the TexasDoc visit works

The TexasDoc visit starts with a structured intake covering symptoms, medications, allergies, and prior treatment response. A Texas-licensed physician (TX) reviews whether a preventive visit is appropriate, whether labs are required, and whether another approach is safer. If a prescription is indicated, it is sent to a pharmacy the patient can use in Texas. That prescription is not a referral to a neighboring-state clinic, or a Houston system treated as if it covered West Texas.

Follow-up is scheduled when treatment starts. Chronic therapies are commonly rechecked at about four weeks, then every one to three months, or sooner if side effects appear.

What happens next

If you want to know whether a preventive visit is appropriate, start a visit. You will leave with a clear yes, a different plan, or a referral. TexasDoc does not guarantee a prescription.

Is a preventive visit available by telehealth in Texas?
Adults who can complete a medical evaluation by telehealth may be treated when a Texas-licensed physician (TX) decides it is appropriate. Controlled substances and some conditions follow stricter rules. TexasDoc does not guarantee a prescription.
Who reviews my consultation?
