MEDICAL SERVICES

In recent years, excellent progress has been made in bringing medical, dental and pharmaceutical services to the Horizon area. Two pediatric clinics have been established, this at a time when El Paso continues to struggle with attracting physicians, particularly pediatricians.

The Horizon Physicians clinic is a private practice operated by Dr. Rodin Mendoza-Castillo. Initially, the clinic operated from two locations, but accommodation problems have limited a local presence. Horizon Communties is working with Dr. Mendoza to help him build a permanent clinic in the center of Horizon. In the meantime, Dr. Mendoza is operating from rented premises in East El Paso.

The Child Wellness Center, operating out of the Region 19 Head Start center on Darrington Road, is an initiative of Texas Tech University Health Science Center. The resident pediatrician is Dr. Alison Days. She was joined by a second pediatrician in 2003.

The area is also served by Clinic Guadalupe, a general practice presently based in neighboring Agua Dulce, Texas.
