On behalf of Texas Gulf Coast Medical Group,
WELCOME to our website, I hope your visit is enjoyable as well as informational.
Texas Gulf Coast Medical Group is a multi-specialty group located in Webster, Texas just south of Houston.
The group was formed in 1996 when 3 groups of physicians joined together with a goal to provide quality healthcare to the community. TGCMG is home to many physicians, ten Family Practice, one Internal Medicine, three Pediatricians, one Endocrinologist, one Podiatrist, and one Rheumatologist. In January 2007 we merged three locations and are now all conveniently located in a new state of the art Medical Office Building. With this move we are now centrally located in what is rapidly becoming a small medical center. We are within walking distance of Clear Lake Regional Medical Center, Triumph Hospital and many other physician offices. We are also expecting a new hospital to come to the area bringing a nine story 375,000 SF modern community hospital. This is very exciting for our community with construction already underway.
We have created this reference guide which I hope will tell you more about our group as well as our community. If you have any questions about your visit you are welcome to contact us at 281-604-1300 or

Your Online Doctor Saves You Time and Money
Patients of the Texas Gulf Coast Medical Group are now able to engage in “office visits” without leaving home with our online doctor.
Dr. Ralph Tharp, the founder of Texas Gulf Coast Medical Group, believes the practice is the first in the Houston area to offer virtual doctor’s office visits over the Internet.
The concept has been introduced in various parts of the country since the early 2000s, with major insurance companies getting on board with coverage in the last couple of years.
Dr. Tharp first heard of the idea through an electronic medical records software company.
