It gives me great pleasure to wish Methodist Charlton Medical
Center a happy 40th anniversary! I am proud to say Methodist
Charlton has made measurable improvements in the overall
quality and delivery of health care services in the southwestern
Dallas County area. Methodist Charlton’s strong commitment to
providing high-quality services to its patients, combined with
its unprecedented community outreach efforts, will continue to
transform the delivery of health care services in our region.

I am honored to have been part of
the Methodist Charlton physician
team for 40 years. I can remember
when the land where the hospital
sits was just a field. To see what it
has become is just amazing.
