Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Patients appreciate
Dr. Pranathi Vemparala receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from her patients, with the vast majority of reviews awarding 5-star ratings. Patients consistently praise her thoroughness and strong communication skills, frequently noting that she explains conditions, treatment plans, and next steps in a way that is easy to understand. Many reviewers highlight her attentive listening, describing her as someone who genuinely hears their concerns and involves them in decisions about their care. She is also frequently described as knowledgeable, professional, kind, caring, and personable, with several patients specifically mentioning her patience in answering multiple or follow-up questions. Numerous reviewers, including many first-time patients, commented on feeling comfortable and confident in her care, with several stating they look forward to continuing treatment with her.
Patients also share
Opportunities for improvement mentioned in the reviews are minimal and isolated. One reviewer felt an early visit came across as reciting "book information" before a later visit felt more personal. Another single review noted a discrepancy between the documented visit length (40 minutes) and their own estimate (closer to 30 minutes). A separate reviewer remarked that an initial appointment left them without enough experience yet to give a definitive recommendation, though this reflects limited visit history rather than a specific complaint. These isolated comments do not point to any consistent or recurring concern across the reviews.
