COVID-19 Notice
Our office hours have changed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Dallas office is staff Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Patients are being seen in the McKinney office only on select dates. Only patients with urgent needs are being seen in person in the office. All patients are required to wear masks if being seen in the office setting.
Telehealth visits are ongoing, and patients have been very pleased by the convenience of these visits. A time for the visit will be scheduled, and Dr. Sutker will contact you, typically within 15 minutes of your allotted time.
As always, anyone with an emergency or urgent needs will be handled expeditiously. There is always a physician on-call, so do not hesitate to contact the office at 972-464-2880 with any needs. Routine matters may take longer for a response due to the pandemic. We appreciate you being flexible and understanding due to the unpredictability of the COVID-19 crisis.
