Since 2006, Doctors For Change has worked toward improving the health of all Houstonians. We have held outreach events to educate and work on solutions to the unacceptable realities in Houston that lead to poor health outcomes. Additionally, we have advocated for changes to policies that address health issues impacting Houston. Over the past 9 years, DFC has developed into a trusted leader for healthcare change in our community.
