                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, December 1, 2016

  Mr. NEUGEBAUER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 10th 
anniversary of Grace Health Clinic in Lubbock, Texas. I would also like 
to honor Grace Health Clinic's founder and CEO, Dr. Randy Hickle, and 
recognize his commitment to providing quality, service and value to the 
countless families throughout the South Plains.
   To appreciate this accomplishment, one must understand the humble 
beginnings from which Grace Health Clinic came.
   Dr. Hickle founded Grace Clinic in 2006 with just eight doctors on 
staff. Under his guidance, Grace Health Clinic has transformed into 
Grace Health System, growing to more than 50 doctors and specialists 
and expanding its operations to better serve their patients' needs.
   The award-winning clinic is the only locally owned, doctor-operated 
health facility in the region. Thanks to the tireless efforts of Dr. 
Hickle, Grace Health Clinic has been able to grow without losing its 
focus on patients and their healthcare needs.
   Mr. Speaker, it is my honor to recognize a clinic that has 
contributed so much to our community. It is my pleasure to take this 
opportunity and praise the vision that Dr. Hickle had when he founded 
this clinic 10 years ago and the leadership he has exhibited throughout 
this journey.
