Our clinic has got you covered!

It is also a short 4-hour drive from the Ruidoso Ski Resort and many lakes. If you enjoy sports, there are many local football games, minor league baseball games, and NAHL hockey leagues to attend and participate in. The Midland/ Odessa area has many assortments of museums to check out. Midland is home to the I-20 wildlife preserve, the Sibley nature center, and the Wagner Noel Performing arts Center where you can see a wide variety of entertainment. Many families have chosen the suburb of Greenwood with the Greenwood ISD schools for smaller class sizes and an excellent education. This allows for a small-town feel with a bigger city’s offerings nearby. After all, we are in the heart of the Permian Basin and the oil industry center of the state. This area has a little bit of everything to offer!
