Our Impact in 2025

Before Bethesda, those in need had to go to a local hospital’s emergency room for medical care. Our state-of-the-art facility eases the burden on local ER’s while serving a neglected segment of our population in a professional and dignified environment.

Discover how Bethesda’s adult and pediatrics clinics made a difference in 2025:

Patient Stories: Real Lives, Real Impact

Discover the stories of individuals whose lives have been transformed by Bethesda Health Clinic:

The Mendoza Family
Your support provided more than medical care.

Just months after launching their food truck business, Cristian and Yesenia Mendoza faced a devastating setback when a bucket of 350-degree fryer oil spilled onto Cristian’s leg, causing severe second- and third-degree burns.

After an emergency room visit, infection began to set in, and the couple struggled to find affordable follow-up care without insurance. That’s when they were referred to Bethesda.

Because of your generosity, Cristian received the wound care, medication, supplies, and support he needed to heal. Bethesda’s team not only cared for his injuries but also equipped Yesenia to help manage his recovery at home.

Today, Cristian is well and healed and has continued working at the food truck he and his wife worked so hard to build.

“Bethesda helped us in every way—emotionally, financially, and spiritually,” Yesenia shared. “They gave us hope when we didn’t know what to do.”

Your support provided more than medical care. It gave the Mendoza family hope, healing, and a path forward.

Martha Sandoval
Martha’s Story
Because of your generosity, Martha’s disease is controlled.

When Martha moved to East Texas, she was living with rheumatoid arthritis — a painful chronic disease that can leave her unable to move for days without proper medication and care.

After being referred to Bethesda, Martha found more than arthritis treatment. She received whole-person care, regular checkups, specialist referrals, medication management, and support for her overall health.

Because of your generosity, Martha’s disease is controlled, her care is consistent, and she can keep living with strength and dignity. She now travels to Bethesda with family members, grateful to have found a place that cares for more than just her illness.

“I have yet to find another place that cares so much about your overall wellbeing,” Martha shared.

Your support gives patients like Martha access to the care they need before a crisis becomes their only option.

Phil
Phil’s Story
Because of you, Phil receives the care he needs to manage his health.

In 2014, after years of living with untreated diabetes and high blood pressure because he couldn’t afford regular healthcare, Phil experienced a serious medical emergency. A doctor in the ER recommended Bethesda Clinic, and that recommendation changed the course of his life.

Today, Phil receives two types of insulin and several other medications that help manage his diabetes and heart condition. If he had to pay retail prices, those medications would cost approximately $3,000 every month.

“Without Bethesda, I really don’t think I would be here,” Phil says.

Because of you, Phil receives the medications, lab work, and ongoing care he needs to manage his health. When he first came to Bethesda, his A1C was 11.4. Today, it is 5.9.

Those numbers tell an important story—but so does Phil’s quality of life. Thanks to consistent care, he is healthier, stronger, and able to continue doing the work he loves.

“You don’t realize how much stress you’re under from not being able to afford healthcare,” Phil says.

Thanks to you, Phil can focus on running his business as a local barber and enjoying life instead of worrying about how he’ll pay for medications, lab work, and doctor’s visits.

Meet our Dedicated Volunteers

Learn about some of the amazing individuals who generously volunteer their time and talents to support Bethesda Health Clinic:

Meet Ann
A compassionate volunteer offering support and prayer.

Ann Boland began volunteering in admissions in the summer of 2021. Not only does she meet with potential patients to determine if they qualify for our services, but offers prayer to ease their suffering. Ann says it’s a real blessing to work with people and touch them through prayer and gospel.

“I see this as my ministry that I can use to glorify God.”

Meet Gina
A dedicated member of the Bethesda Alliance who contributes to fundraising efforts.

Gina Butler is a member of the Bethesda Alliance and has been volunteering at the clinic since 2012. Gina’s creativity and passion for Bethesda contributes to huge success at the clinic’s biggest annual fundraiser, the Birthday Bash.

“I believe that the Lord is in this clinic because of the way people have responded. The people of our community have given above and beyond what we ever imagined and I believe it’s because God is using this clinic and I love being a part of it. When Jesus ministered to people he always met their physical needs first and THEN he talked to them about their spiritual needs. That’s why the clinic is so successful. God is at the center and I appreciate Dr. English for making that happen.”

Meet Gerry
A volunteer physician assistant specializing in diabetes care.

Gerry Brown is a volunteer physician assistant who specializes in diabetes care and other chronic illnesses. Diabetes is very prevalent among Bethesda’s patients, and many of them did not receive adequate treatment prior to coming to the clinic. Gerry not only treats symptoms of diabetes and other comorbidities, but encourages patients to make lifestyle changes that are necessary to controlling the disease.

“I enjoy volunteering, giving a little bit back to the community, and helping to take care of folks in need that don’t have good access to healthcare.”

Dave Beck sitting in front a mural - Patient Stories

Meet Dave
A career shift that ignited a powerful journey of faith and patient support through prayer.

David Beck, a former physician’s assistant at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, sought to give back by volunteering in healthcare. Initially unsure of his fit at Bethesda Health Clinic, he found purpose in aiding with financial screening. Through volunteering, he rediscovered his faith and was baptized. Encouraged by fellow volunteer Don Wheeler, he joined a church community group, which transformed his life. Now, David embraces his role in prayer and discipleship at Bethesda, where he and his wife volunteer together. Guided by faith, David remains dedicated to his ministry at Bethesda.

“I love this place because this is a place to practice discipleship,” David said. “Everyone has their spiritual gifts, and I believe mine is prayer. One thing I do with our patients is pray with them… people don’t get enough prayer. Our patients, most of them, have been told what to do their whole lives, and a lot of them leave in tears when we pray with them.”
