Help us celebrate Doctors Day 2019
 

Each year, the nation recognizes Doctors’ Day on March 30th as a reminder of the contribution made to our health and our communities by our doctors.

 

This year we invite you to join us in thanking our UT Health San Antonio physicians by sharing what you most appreciate about your doctor.

 


You are the reason our physicians get up each and every day and we would  love to hear about what makes you thankful.

 

You can send a message of thanks to your doctor at UT Health by emailing  vasquezmm@uthscsa.edu by February 22nd.  Your doctor will receive your comments on an internal website and a printed note.  We appreciate your participation.
