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

Philosophy of the group:

We recognized that our staff is the most precious resource within the organization. We commit to making our staff our priority; a happy employee is a productive and caring employee. Our pledge to ensure a happy and healthy work environment is vital to attracting and maintaining talented, caring and innovative staff. Every staff member has something to contribute to the team; this belief is the key to our success.
