New Patients
Relief starts right here.
If you’re visiting us for the first time, welcome.
This page walks you through what to expect, how appointments work,
and how we handle insurance and payment. Our goal is simple:
An easy visit + clear options so you can decide what’s next
What you can expect
Most patients begin treatment at their first visit—here’s how it works:
Schedule an appointment
Call or text (281) 313-0090, or book online to schedule your appointment. We hold appointments each day for new patients and send your forms ahead of time to complete before you arrive.
Arrive a few minutes early
Parking is easy, and the office is located on the first floor, so you can park right outside and walk straight in. Our team will check you in and get you settled quickly—we aim to see patients within about 10 minutes of their appointment time.
Understand what's happening
Dr. Vargas will talk with you about what you’re experiencing, examine your foot or ankle, and explain what’s actually causing the problem. Many patients tell us this is the first time someone has clearly explained why their pain is happening.
Review your treatment options
Once we understand the cause, we’ll walk through the treatment options together. Dr. Vargas focuses on regenerative treatments whenever possible—solutions that help your body heal without altering your anatomy.
Start getting better the same day
If you choose to move forward with treatments, many patients begin the same day. Whether it’s laser therapy, shockwave treatment, orthotics, or another approach, you’ll leave with a clear plan and the next step toward relief.
New Patient Forms
Once your appointment is scheduled, we’ll send your patient forms ahead of time so you can complete them on your phone or computer before you arrive. You can also review or print them using the links below.

Financial Information
Every patient’s situation is different, so we take the time to walk through your options before moving forward.
Insurance often covers office visits and imaging, while many advanced regenerative therapies are private pay. We accept cash, major credit cards, CareCredit, and Afterpay, and we’ll explain any costs clearly before anything begins.
Insurance Coverage
Insurance typically covers your office visit, imaging (such as X-rays), and certain traditional treatments, like injections or surgery. Coverage varies by plan, and our team can help verify your benefits and explain what is covered.
Private Pay Treatments
Many advanced regenerative therapies—such as laser treatments and shockwave therapy—are not covered by insurance. These treatments focus on helping the body heal naturally and often help patients avoid surgery or extended recovery time.
If a recommended treatment is not covered, we’ll explain the cost clearly before anything begins so you can decide whether it’s right for you.
CareCredit and Afterpay Financing
We offer financing through CareCredit and Afterpay to make treatment more manageable. These options allow you to divide the cost of care into smaller payments over time. Our team can help you apply or answer questions if you’d like to explore either option.
