Healthcare Like No Other for More Than 100 Years

When Arthur C. Scott, M.D., and Raleigh R. White Jr., M.D., began their medical practice in Temple, Texas in 1897, they shared one fundamental conviction: medicine must serve the people.

Today, Scott & White is the largest multi-speciality practice in Texas, with more than 500 physicians who care for patients at Scott & White Memorial Hospital in Temple and at our numerous regional clinics throughout Central Texas. In addition, they deliver care to members of the Scott & White Health Plan, one of the highest rated plans in the nation.
