If you're searching for a Spanish-speaking doctor in Houston, here's the honest answer: Doctor Matt connects you by video with a Colombian physician who speaks your language. You're not driving to a clinic — you join the visit from wherever you are in Houston, and anywhere else in the U.S., using your phone or computer. The visit is a flat $88 USD, one payment, no membership, and you're seen with or without insurance. Book your video visit here and pick a time that works for you.
Built for Houston's Spanish-speaking community
Houston is one of the most Latino cities in the country. Nearly half of Houstonians are Hispanic, with a large Mexican-American community and a strong Salvadoran, Honduran, and Guatemalan presence, alongside Venezuelan, Cuban, and Colombian families who've arrived in recent years. You feel it in neighborhoods like the East End, where the Second Ward — "El Segundo Barrio" — and Magnolia Park have anchored Mexican-American life for generations. You feel it in Gulfton, the dense, working-class quarter in the southwest sometimes called Houston's "Ellis Island" for how many immigrant families put down roots there. And you feel it across the Near Northside and Northside, and out in Pasadena, where Spanish is simply the language of the block.
For a lot of families in these neighborhoods, seeing a doctor means asking off work, finding someone to watch the kids, fighting traffic on the I-45 or the Loop 610, and then sitting in a crowded waiting room. A video visit skips all of that: no commute, no waiting room, from your own home, you talk straight to a doctor who speaks your language. And when the physician recommends an over-the-counter (OTC) product, you pick it up at the pharmacy on your corner — a nearby CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart — with no runaround.
How the video visit works
The process is simple and takes only a few minutes:
- Pay online: make the single $88 USD payment through the secure Bold platform.
- Pick a date and time: the calendar shows open slots in your own Houston (Central) time zone.
- Join by video: connect from your phone or computer — no app to install.
- Get your care plan: the doctor reviews your case and gives you clear guidance in Spanish.
We see patients every day, including weekends, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Colombia time (GMT-5). The video service reaches all of Houston, the metro area, and the rest of the United States.
What Doctor Matt helps with
This visit is meant for minor ailments that don't need an emergency room: colds, cough, sore throat, upset stomach, mild allergies, questions about common symptoms, and general health guidance. The person seeing you is a Colombian physician who speaks Spanish natively. The doctor can recommend over-the-counter (OTC) medicine you'll find at pharmacies like CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart, and walk you through how to take care of yourself at home.
Honest about what we are
We want to be upfront so there are no surprises. Doctor Matt is telemedicine by video — not a physical clinic in Houston. The doctors are licensed in Colombia and are not licensed in any U.S. state, and they do not write prescriptions valid at U.S. pharmacies. What you get is a real conversation, in Spanish, with a physician who can assess minor concerns and point you to OTC options. If your situation needs a prescription or hands-on care, the doctor will say so clearly so you know your next step.
Why a doctor who speaks your language matters
Explaining pain or a symptom in a language you don't fully command can lead to mix-ups. A doctor who speaks Spanish understands not only your words but your context — how you describe a "gripa," what remedies you've already tried, and what's worrying you. For Houston's Latino community, that trust makes the visit more accurate, more human, and more useful for your health.
Emergencies: when to call 911
Telemedicine does not replace emergency care. If you have chest pain, trouble breathing, heavy bleeding, or signs of a stroke, call 911 immediately or go to the nearest emergency room. For everyday minor concerns, we're here to help.
