Patient Services

Our International Patient Coordinators can help you determine the right physician who will be able to review your case. Once the case is reviewed, they will assist you in making appointments and providing you with information related to your visit. This service is provided as a courtesy to you by Texas Children's Hospital.

All patients and their families are assisted at all stages of their health care experience by our helpful, compassionate team. Among the languages we speak are French, Spanish, Dutch and Japanese.
