About V-Care, formerly SKC Family Clinic

Same physicians, same team, new name. V-Care is a family practice and urgent care clinic on Clay Road in west Houston, caring for patients from newborns through their senior years.

The V-Care team

V-Care Family Practice & Urgent Care is the new name for SKC Family Clinic. If you were a patient there, very little has changed. The same physicians and the same team are here to care for you, led by our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Sadiq A. Syed.

Under one roof, we offer primary and preventive care from newborns to older adults, same-day urgent visits for minor injuries and sudden illnesses, physicals, allergy testing, and in-house diagnostics including EKG, every kind of ultrasound and lab draws with results in about a day. Our team speaks English, Spanish, Urdu, Hindi and Punjabi. We serve families across west Houston, including Bear Creek, Copperfield, Katy and Cypress.

Our approach hasn't changed either. We pair modern tools with the human touch: time to listen, clear explanations and a plan you understand before you leave. Whether you're here for a yearly checkup or a sprained ankle, your care stays in one place, with one team.

Our mission

To provide exceptional, patient-centered care through personalized attention, preventive programs and evidence-based treatment, with continuity from routine wellness to urgent medical needs.

Our vision

To be the most trusted family and urgent care provider, delivering compassionate, accessible and comprehensive healthcare that helps every patient live a healthier life.
