"Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'" Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said. As we reflect on the life and legacy of Dr. King, we are inspired.
For decades, we have worked to make preventive care and leading-edge cancer treatments accessible to the people in our community who need it most. It’s an honor to serve thousands of people each year in medically underserved areas across North Texas. #MLKDay
