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.

I was a new patient, he took time to listen to me. He read my MRI results, explained them to me and made his recommendations. He suggested an orthopedic doctor and said he would get me in to him. (her). He asked what I was doing for my pain. He asked if I would consider injections in my shoulders, and that he could do them there. I gladly accepted. He was professional, and seemed very caring and acted like I was important. I am VERY, VERY pleased with him as a doctor and a person.By the way, my debilitating pain has been cut by 80%. In the last 5 months, no one else even asked about injections.

I am new to the state of Texas and have experienced issues with finding a doctor. Dr. Ampelas helped me understand the ins and outs of finding care, understanding referrals and how to manage my prescriptions. In my opinion, he made me feel like he could be my one stop shop for my healthcare needs. I mentioned I needed to find an allergist and he scheduled an allergist visit. I asked for a blood test and he scheduled that. It was a great experience.
