History of group / practice:

Our Health Center’s history started with Sister Dolores’ unconditional love to provide care for those in need. Sister Dolores Girault, D.C., a retired nurse and pharmacist, realized there was increasing health problems in the West side of San Antonio. She solicited support and funding to operate a two-exam room pediatric clinic in the back of a church to care for children.

Today, we are a full service primary healthcare system that still represents the genuine and unconditional care that Sister Dolores’ showcased. Our health center is determined to provide families the care they need and to make them feel at home as much as possible.
