Dr. Mattox is a nationally renowned surgeon who has written books and held conferences focused on trauma medicine. He is Professor and Vice Chairman of Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine and has been named among the Best Surgeons in America five times. Dr. Mattox will be the guest of honor at the press conference scheduled on September 20, 2020 for lending his experience and guidance to the DHR Health trauma team as they worked toward the Level 1 Trauma Center designation, providing them with mentorship, guidance in research and trauma care for individual surgeons and the system as a whole. It is our pleasure to put his name on the trauma center he helped build in order to bring the highest level of emergency health care to the residents of the Rio Grande Valley.
