Insurances accepted

Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.

Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice

5.0 Mar 10, 2025 Smart, knowledgeable, kind, when we were with her. Having had swelling arms for days, she orders an ultrasound for blood clots, which we appreciated very much. She also demonstrated how to lay his arm on a pillow over his belly. Knowing this position was huge in making the swelling go away. We both were very grateful for how knowledgeable she is. We even had a few laughs, which always helps reduce the nervous tension we had about how well he was doing. Highly recommend her. She deserves way more than 10 stars.
