The clinic, which specializes in treating adult and geriatric patients, is open for appointments Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and is able to offer a range of in-house comprehensive laboratory work and studies. The clinic is conveniently located in walking proximity to Knapp Medical Center, allowing for ease of transition for those patients who may have visited the hospital recently.

The compassionate resident physicians serving in the clinic are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to care for the patients of the Valley outside of the hospital setting and to provide regular evidence-based individualized clinical care in the outpatient setting. We hope that this clinic will grow to serve a large portion of the community here in Weslaco and the Valley as a whole.

We encourage you to consider a visit to our Internal Medicine clinic for all your primary care needs. Walk-ins and same-day visits are also available. Kindly give us a call at 956-296-7710. We would be delighted to have the opportunity to serve you!
