🌟 Provider Spotlight: Paul Willers, II, D.O. 🌟
Dr. Paul Willers discovered his true calling in rural healthcare while attending medical school with plans to become a pathologist. Originally from Lake Jackson, Texas, he found that he preferred the sense of connection and purpose that comes with small-town life. During a rotation with a family physician who practiced full-spectrum family medicine, Dr. Willers realized he had found his place—caring for patients across generations and forming lasting relationships built on trust and compassion.
Since 2016, Dr. Willers has been a dedicated member of the Cuero Regional Hospital medical staff, providing comprehensive family care to our community. His leadership and service extend beyond the clinic, having served as Chief of Staff from 2017–2021, and currently as Chief Medical Officer at Cuero Regional Hospital. He also serves as Medical Director for Obstetrics at CRH, Cuero Nursing and Rehab, Whispering Oaks Rehab and Nursing, Harbor Hospice, and Main Street at CRH.
Dr. Willers is a Fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) and a prior delegate of the South Texas Chapter of the Texas Academy of Family Physicians (TAFP). During his residency at Houston Methodist San Jacinto, he served as Chief Resident. His commitment to advancing rural medicine continues through his work as a rural rotation preceptor and faculty member with the Texas A&M Family Medicine Residency Program in Bryan–College Station, as well as Adjunct Faculty with the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. He is also a published author, contributing the chapter “Does the Patient Have an Adrenal Mass?” in Ultrasound for Primary Care by Dr. Paul Bornemann.
Outside of medicine, Dr. Willers enjoys hunting birds and deer, watching soccer, and spending time with his wife and three boys. He also loves collecting and restoring classic cars and trucks.
A favorite quote that guides his approach to patient care is from Sir William Osler:
“The good physician treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease.”
Thank you, Dr. Willers, for your dedication, leadership, and continued service to the patients and families of Cuero and surrounding communities.
