Televisits appointments are offered only when medically appropriate for your needs and focus on evaluation and treatment of minor primary care concerns, such as eye infections, earaches, rashes, insect bites and skin irritation, digestive issues, colds, and more. You may be given a prescription or referred for further treatment at the conclusion of the televisit.

UTMB Health urgent care televisits are offered daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., for both new and existing patients.

To schedule a televisit, call the UTMB Access Center Nurse Triage Line at (800) 917-8906, available 24/7. A nurse will listen to your needs and help direct you to the most appropriate care.
