Dr. Mraz discusses her personal journey from residency at the clinic to becoming its medical director and the impact of their $20 all-inclusive visits for Midland County families.Together, they highlight how the clinic bridges access to healthcare, provides on-site pharmacy services, and collaborates with partners like Midland Memorial Hospital and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. They also share volunteer opportunities, community partnerships, and their annual “Dink & Dine” Pickleball Tournament, which raises funds to keep kids healthy and cared for in our community.It’s a heartfelt look at how compassion, collaboration, and faith continue to make a difference for thousands of children across Midland.Chapters
