Telemedicine in Sunnyvale, Texas

Virtual ER brings board-certified emergency physicians and nurse practitioners to patients in Sunnyvale and throughout Dallas County. Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from your phone, tablet, or computer.

Looking for a tele visit in Sunnyvale, TX? Virtual ER connects you with a board-certified emergency physician by video, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from anywhere in Sunnyvale or the wider Dallas County area. A visit starts from your phone or computer: the physician reviews your symptoms in real time, talks through what is going on, and, when medically appropriate, sends a prescription to the pharmacy you choose, including mail-order services. Just as important is what a video visit cannot do. Some problems need hands-on care, and our physicians are direct about that: every visit includes honest guidance on whether video treatment is enough or in-person care is the right call. For Sunnyvale's roughly 7,900 residents, that means around-the-clock access to emergency-trained physicians for illnesses and minor injuries that will not wait for a weekday appointment. For anything life-threatening, call 911 first.
