Think a Rideshare is Enough After Surgery? Think Again. Here’s Why You Need Amera.

Just had surgery or planning one soon? You might be thinking, “I’ll just grab an Uber to get home.”  But here’s the thing—when anesthesia or sedation is involved, a regular rideshare just doesn’t cut it.

At Amera, we specialize in getting patients home safely after outpatient procedures. Whether you’re in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Beaumont, Corpus Christi, or the surrounding areas, we’re here to take the stress out of post-surgery transportation.

Why Rideshares Aren’t Built for This
Sure, Uber and Lyft are great for everyday errands. But when it comes to getting home after a procedure, they’re missing some key things… like medical know-how and post-op support.

Here’s what rideshares don’t offer:

  • Drivers who can help if you’re groggy, dizzy, or weak
  • Someone to sign you out of the facility (most clinics won’t release you to a random driver)
  • Help if your appointment runs late—they can’t wait around
  • Support with stairs, doors, or even getting into your house

 

Honestly? You deserve better.

Why Amera Is a Better Choice
We’re not just a ride.  We’re a care team on wheels.  At Amera, our drivers are trained CNAs or nurses who know how to handle post-surgery situations. We’ve helped thousands of patients just like you get home safely and comfortably.

Here’s what you get with Amera:

  • Nurse or CNA-led transportation
  • We’ll wait during your appointment—no stress if you’re running behind
  • Help signing in or out of the facility
  • Support getting settled once you’re home
  • Friendly, professional care the whole way through

 

We’ve got your back—whether you’re heading home after a procedure in Austin or a follow-up in Corpus Christi and nearby areas.

Perfect for All Kinds of Procedures
We help patients with all sorts of outpatient needs, like:

  • Colonoscopies
  • Cataract surgeries
  • Pain management injections
  • Oral or dental surgeries
  • Cosmetic procedures

 

If your provider says you need a ride, we’re the ride they’re talking about.
