Question 1

Can a McAllen patient be seen entirely by telehealth?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Rio Grande Valley patients are seen entirely by secure video, as long as they are physically located in Texas at the time of each visit. Visits cannot be conducted from across the border or from anywhere else outside Texas.

Question 2

Do you offer Spanish-language psychiatric visits?

Accepted Answer

Visits at SLS Psychiatry are currently conducted in English. We will be direct during scheduling if a Spanish-speaking provider in the Valley would serve a patient better than we can, and we will help redirect where possible.

Question 3

Do you accept insurance commonly used in the Rio Grande Valley?

Accepted Answer

We accept UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, and Aetna. See our insurance page for current details and self-pay options.

Question 4

Can you coordinate with my Valley primary care or OB-GYN provider?

Accepted Answer

Yes. With your written consent we are happy to share clinical updates with a McAllen- or Valley-based primary care, OB-GYN, or sleep medicine provider when that improves your care.
