After Hours and Emergencies

How will my medical care be taken care of after office hours?

If you find it necessary to contact Dr. Weinstein after regular office hours, to handle an urgent medical need, call the clinic at 713-932-0118 and follow the instructions given to page the doctor on call. The answering service will forward your call to Dr. Weinstein. Please try and keep your telephone line clear after leaving a message with the answering service. If Dr. Weinstein has not returned your call within 30-45 minutes, place your call again. Electronic paging equipment occasionally fails and messages are sometimes incorrectly transmitted.

If Dr. Weinstein is unavailable, another one of our Physicians who is covering for Dr. Weinstein will return your call as quickly as possible.

If you think that Dr. Weinstein will need to communicate with your pharmacy, first verify that it is open and if not, please find the phone number of an alternate pharmacy in your area that has extended hours.

***** If you have a life-threatening illness or injury call 911. *****

What if I have an Emergency?

Do not go directly to the emergency room unless a true medical emergency exists (heart attack, stroke, loss of consciousness or respiration, severe bleeding or a broken bone). Whenever possible, utilize MEMORIAL HERMANN HOSPITAL MEMORIAL CITY, or the closest hospital designated by your plan.

If you are unable to contact Dr. Weinstein prior to going to the Emergency Room, please identify that Dr. Weinstein is your Primary Care Physician upon arrival there so that he can be notified as quickly as possible. All other after hours problems should be handled by first contacting Dr. Weinstein, so that he can advise you as to the best course of action.
