Internal Medicine in New Braunfels with Dr. Majid Atique, MD and Dustin Zimmerman, PA-C

Both Dr. Majid Atique, MD and Dustin Zimmerman, PA-C were taking new adult patients at the time of writing. Availability moves around, so the quickest way to find out is to call 830-445-4080 during office hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. You can also start on our Become a Patient page and the front desk will call you back.

Yes. The practice sees patients by video as well as in the office. Some visits still need to happen in person, such as a first appointment that involves an exam or blood work. Call 830-445-4080, say what you need, and the front desk will tell you whether it can be done by video.

The practice accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicare. Aetna, Alliant Health Plans and CVS Health are among the plans on file. That is not the full list, and plans change every January, so call 830-445-4080 with your plan name and member ID and the front desk will check your specific coverage before your appointment rather than after it. Our Insurance & Fees page covers what we can put in writing.

Yes. Ask about self-pay pricing when you call 830-445-4080, particularly for weight loss and testosterone therapy visits, since insurance coverage for those varies a lot between plans. The front desk will quote you the current rate for the visit you need.

If this is a medical emergency, call 911.

For anything urgent that is not an emergency, the Privia 24-hour nurse line is 877-977-4842. A nurse can advise you overnight, at weekends and on holidays, when the office is closed. For routine matters, call the office at 830-445-4080 when it reopens, Monday through Friday at 8:00 AM.

Both go through MyPrivia, the patient portal. You can use the MyPrivia app or go to myprivia.com/hillcountryim. Results are posted there once your provider has reviewed them, and you can send a refill request through the same portal.

If you cannot get into the portal, or you have not heard back on something time-sensitive, call 830-445-4080 and the front desk will help.

Yes. FibroScan is done here at the New Braunfels office. It is a scan that measures liver stiffness and fat without a needle, so there is no biopsy and no recovery time. Your provider will go through the result with you.

No. This is an internal medicine practice, which means adult medicine. We do not offer pediatrics. We also do not provide dentistry, eye care, orthopedics, neurology, gynecology or heart surgery, whatever the old version of this website may have suggested. If you need one of those, call and we will tell you whether a referral is the right next step.

Internal medicine doctors, sometimes called internists, train specifically in adult illness and in managing more than one condition at the same time. Many of them, including Dr. Atique, work as primary care providers, which means they are the doctor you see first for most things and the one who keeps track of the whole picture. So an internist can be your primary care provider. The difference is the training behind them.
