UT Health Austin will be closed on Monday, January 20 in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Due to inclement weather and to ensure the safety of our patients and staff, UT Health Austin will be closed on Tuesday, January 21. Telehealth appointments will proceed as scheduled, but all in-clinic services and visits will be rescheduled through our Access Center and individual departments. For non-urgent matters, you can always message your care team through your MyUTHA Patient Portal.
