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, Baylor Scott & White is the largest multi-speciality practice in Texas, with more than 500 physicians who care for patients at Baylor Scott & White in Temple and at our numerous regional clinics throughout Central Texas. In addition, they deliver care to members of the Baylor Scott & White Health Plan, one of the highest rated plans in the nation. Unmatched Commitment to Patients and Families Baylor Scott & White is unique among medical providers in its focus on patient care at every level: Baylor Scott & White is led and managed by physicians who place patient and family-centered care above all else. Because Scott & White is the clinical educational site for The Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine, every physician here excels at communication, from teacher to student and physician to patient. We have invested heavily in research, a commitment that ensures our patients access to the latest treatment protocols and clinical trials.
