Choice in Physician

[Sherry]

When we moved back to Texas we faced that lovely task of trying to find a new doctor. It's not an easy thing to do when you are limited to insurance, HMO's, etc. My husband asked around at work for recommendations, and his secretary recommended her doctor, so we signed on with him hoping for the best.

After our initial visit, we both were very pleased. We thought he would do very well for our family physician. So far we have only been to his office 2-4 times and have been very happy with him and his whole staff.

Today I received a letter in the mail from his office, explaining the transition to their one to two-physician practice and how well it's gone. It further explained that the need to have a two-doctor office was to finalize the plans for a new hospice company. One of only two physician-owned hospices in Fort Worth.

It further pointed out this:

We have a top-notch nursing, social services, and pastoral team committed to excellence in hospice care.

Our mission is to be used by God to improve the lives of people who have a life-limiting diagnosis. We believe in the distinctive value of human beings as created in God's image.

I think we made a really good choice in a family doctor, hope we never have to use the hospice care, but good to know it's there.
