Mission of Texas Tech Physicians

Texas Tech Physicians of Lubbock will be a top-tier medical practice nationally recognized in quality patient care, satisfaction and value.

Texas Tech Physicians Pediatrics incorporates a southwest clinic for seeing patients

Texas Tech pediatricians will begin seeing patients at its new Texas Tech Physicians Southwest Pediatrics clinic at 6630 Quaker Ave., Suite C, on July 1, announced Richard Lampe, M.D., chairman of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Medicine Department of Pediatrics.

G. Steven Brown, D.O., who has served patients in Lubbock for more than 11 years, has gifted his general pediatrics practice to Texas Tech Physicians of Lubbock.

Brown is leaving Lubbock in September to serve as a medical missionary in Africa for a minimum of four years. He said he chose to donate his practice to TTUHSC so that his patients would have continuity of care. Brown completed his residency at TTUHSC.

"I wanted to make sure that the more than 2,000 patients I see have a medical home to go to as opposed to just closing the practice down," Brown said. "This is a great opportunity for Texas Tech Physicians to be in southwest Lubbock."

Nancy Valdez, M.D., and Elisabeth Goldwater, M.D., will carry on the practice for Brown. Goldwater, a Lubbock native, said she is excited to have the opportunity to provide quality health care to young people in southwest Lubbock.

"This new practice gives Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center a whole new outreach area," Goldwater said. "And it's a great opportunity for me to get to practice in the community where I was raised."
