Terms of use.
These terms govern your use of the websites operated by Urgent Surgery Associates, PA and North Texas Critical Care, PA. By using this site, you agree to them.
Medical Emergencies
This website is not a means of obtaining emergency medical care. Nothing submitted through this site — including contact forms, referral forms, or portal messages — should be relied upon to reach a physician urgently.
Hospital-to-hospital and urgent patient transfers must be coordinated through the Baylor Patient Transfer Center at 214.820.6444, available 24 hours a day.
No Medical Advice
The content on this website — including descriptions of surgical and critical care services, physician biographies, and educational material — is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified health care professional.
Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified provider with any questions about a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read on this site.
No Physician–Patient Relationship
Visiting this website, reading its content, or submitting information through a form on it does not create a physician–patient relationship between you and Urgent Surgery Associates, PA, North Texas Critical Care, PA, or any of our physicians or advanced practice providers. That relationship is established only through an actual clinical encounter.
Acceptable Use
You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes. You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the site, its servers, or any system connected to it; interfere with its operation or security; use automated means to scrape or harvest content; or submit false, misleading, or another person’s information without authorization.
Portions of this site — including the physician and advanced practice provider portal and internal reference materials — are restricted to authorized users. Access credentials are for your individual use and may not be shared.
Patient Portal and Forms
Our patient portal is provided by a third-party vendor and is governed by that vendor’s own terms and privacy practices in addition to these terms. We encourage you to submit patient forms through the portal, which uses a secure connection.
Please do not send protected health information to us by ordinary email. Email is not a secure channel, and we cannot guarantee the confidentiality of information sent that way.
Privacy
Our handling of protected health information is described in our Notice of Privacy Practices, which applies to both Urgent Surgery Associates, PA and North Texas Critical Care, PA. Please review it to understand your rights and our responsibilities.
Intellectual Property
The content, design, logos, and marks on this website — including the Urgent Surgery Associates, North Texas Critical Care, and Texas Surgeons Network names and logos — are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable law. You may view, download, and print pages for your own personal or internal clinical reference. Any other use, including reproduction, modification, distribution, or commercial use, requires our prior written permission.
Third-Party Links
This site links to third-party websites, including hospital systems, our patient portal, payment processing, and government resources. We provide those links for convenience and do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, security, or practices of any third-party site. Your use of those sites is governed by their own terms.
Disclaimer of Warranties
This website and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors, or that content — including physician rosters, hospital affiliations, and service descriptions — is complete or current at all times.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Urgent Surgery Associates, PA, North Texas Critical Care, PA, and their physicians, providers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, revenue, or goodwill, arising out of your access to or use of this website — even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, and nothing here affects the standard of care owed to you in an actual clinical relationship.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from your use of this website will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Dallas County, Texas, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms at any time. The current version will always be posted on this page, and your continued use of the site after we post a change means you accept the revised terms.

If you have questions about these terms, write to us at Urgent Surgery Associates, PA, 2710 Swiss Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75204, or call 214.821.1599.
