We had the privilege of hosting a room full of leaders and changemakers focused on improving access to heart health in our community ❤️ American Heart Association American Heart Association - Texas

At Waco Family Medicine, we know that access to primary care is one of the most powerful drivers of overall health. Dr. Jackson Griggs opened the conversation with a clear reminder: when we invest in primary care, we impact everything, from prevention to long-term outcomes across our community.

We are heart powered because we believe all Texans deserve access to quality healthcare.

Thank you to the American Heart Association for hosting this event at Waco Family Medicine for including us in your impactful event! And thank you to our staff who joined in on the conversation to share stories from the work they do every day in our clinics and beyond.

🚐 BIG NEWS FOR WACO 🚐

Waco Family Medicine’s Mobile & Street Team is officially LIVE!

Bringing medical care directly to individuals experiencing homelessness is now possible thanks to a $2.5 million federal grant from the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA).

This is the first program of its kind in our region, delivering trauma-informed primary care through a mobile clinic and on-foot street medicine.

The program also serves as a training site for Waco Family Medicine residents, giving the next generation of physicians hands-on experience caring for patients in community settings and addressing the real-world challenges that impact health.

We are honored to work alongside many community organizations that have long served this population, and to join in finding new ways to bring care directly to those who need it most.

A huge thank you to Emily Humphrey, FNP, and Dr. Ryan Laschober for their leadership in bringing this program to life.

📺 Tune in to your local news tonight to learn more.

March 4, 2026 marked a powerful day for Waco Family Medicine and the Greater Temple community.

We celebrated the opening of our new, expanded clinic, and we did so while surrounded by community leaders, elected officials, healthcare partners, donors, board members, and our incredible staff.

Moments like this remind us that expanding healthcare access takes many partners. It requires interdependence. This new clinic will serve families across Temple with comprehensive care, pharmacy services, and a commitment to meeting people where they are.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make this day possible. Together, we’re building a healthier future for Central Texas.

Temple Downtown, we’re officially open! 🎉

Today we celebrate the grand opening of our newest Waco Family Medicine clinic in Downtown Temple, expanding access to care for families across the Temple community. From prenatal care to pediatrics to on-site pharmacy (coming soon) and so much more, this space was built with our patients in mind.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today to celebrate this exciting moment. The future of healthcare in Temple is bright — and we’re just getting started.

We’re incredibly proud of the collaborative research conducted by our team at Waco Family Medicine in partnership with Baylor University.

A new study published in the Annals of Family Medicine highlights a practical, affordable solution to the national interpreter shortage.

Led by Dr. Karol Hardin and D. Mike Hardin Jr., M.D., Chief Clinical Officer at Waco Family Medicine, the research demonstrates that with the right training, heritage Spanish-speaking clinic employees can become qualified medical interpreters, which strengthens communication and health equity in community health centers.

As Jackson Griggs, M.D., CEO of Waco Family Medicine, shared:

“This highly relevant research offers a practical, evidence-based option to strengthen language access in community health centers. Safety and care quality are core priorities for health centers, and that commitment must fully include patients who are more comfortable speaking Spanish.”

This is what it looks like when academic research and frontline care work together to better serve our communities!
