Quick answers
Short answers to the questions people ask before booking. Each links to the page that owns the full detail.
Can you see me anywhere in Texas?
Virtual visits are available across Texas. In-person care is Dallas–Fort Worth only.
Licensure follows where the patient is located at the time of the visit, which is why the virtual footprint and the in-person footprint are different and stated separately.
Limits: No claim of in-person availability outside Dallas–Fort Worth.
Are you licensed in Illinois?
Yes. Our provider is licensed in Illinois, and applicable virtual care is operational there with Illinois-specific rates.
In-person Illinois Care Days are held quarterly — four times a year, about once every three months — with each date announced once scheduled. Nothing is bookable for a Care Day until a date exists.
Limits: No Care Day date is currently scheduled, and there is no daily Illinois office.
When is the next Illinois Care Day?
Care Days are held four times a year, roughly quarterly. Exact dates are announced as they are scheduled — there is no bookable date today.
Illinois virtual care does not wait for a Care Day; it is available now. Ask to be told when dates are published if in-person care is what you need.
Limits: We never imply a Care Day appointment exists before one is scheduled.
Is the family membership available in my state?
Yes. Whole Family Virtual Care operates nationwide across all 50 states, including Alaska and Hawaii.
That coverage belongs to the network membership. Presence clinician-led care is a separate thing, limited to the states where our provider is licensed.
Limits: Nationwide coverage never implies nationwide Presence in-person or DPC availability.
The nearest clinic is an hour away. Does virtual care help?
Considerably. Most of what forces the drive — the assessment, the refill, the result review, the order for testing — can happen without it.
Labs and imaging can be ordered at a facility near you at member pricing, and prescriptions sent to your local pharmacy. What still requires the drive is any examination or procedure, and you will be told that early.
Limits: Distance makes red flags more important, not less: severe symptoms need the nearest emergency department.
Can I use this while travelling?
It depends where you physically are. Licensure follows your location, so Presence care applies where our provider is licensed; the Whole Family network covers all 50 states.
Outside the United States, neither pathway is a substitute for local care, and prescriptions generally cannot be filled abroad.
Limits: No international care claim; no prescribing into other countries.
Where can I be seen in person?
In-person care is available in Dallas–Fort Worth, at $99 for a member visit. Illinois in-person care happens on quarterly Care Days, dates to be announced.
Everywhere else is virtual. We would rather state that plainly than let anyone drive to a place that does not exist.
Limits: No daily office outside Dallas–Fort Worth.

About this information
Written by the Presence care team for patients considering care with us. Presence care is delivered by licensed providers, including a board-certified Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner — not by a physician, and not by software. Meet your provider.
This page explains how our service works. It is general information, not a diagnosis, and it is not a substitute for an evaluation of your own situation. Whether testing, treatment or a prescription is appropriate is decided during a visit.
If this is an emergency — chest pain, trouble breathing, stroke symptoms, severe bleeding, or thoughts of harming yourself — call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. See our emergency care notice.
Still deciding?
Call and we will tell you honestly which option fits your household — including when the answer is none of ours.
