2017 Q2 Presidents Letter

DHAT and our partners at North Texas Endoscopy Centers were pleased to have completed our 5th Annual Free Colon Cancer Screening Day. This event took place April 8th and provided 54 uninsured people in the DFW area with much-needed colon cancer screening.

A special thanks to our wonderful staff and DHAT physicians who took time off on their Saturday to help these patients: Dr. Kent Hamilton, Dr. Paul Tarnasky, Dr. Gordon Luk, Dr. Sangeethapriya Duraiswamy, Dr. Rao Vemula, Dr. Veenay Antin, Dr. John Lee, Dr. Noel Snowberger, Dr. Yamini Maddala, Dr. Ravi Chittajallu, Dr. Manmeet Padda, Dr. Moustafa Youssef and Dr. Jessica Shah.  

DHAT wants to welcome Dr. Kevin Ho to the practice of Dr. Balu Chandra and Dr. Cherian Abraham in North Richland Hills.  DHAT continues to grow, and we are proud to have Dr. Sanjay Nayar, Dr. Luis Lizardo, Dr. Venessa Beckman and Dr. Faiz Mirza joining our group in July and August.

DHAT continues to be recognized both locally and nationally for digestive health care excellence. Becker’s GI & Endoscopy listed DHAT as one of the Top 45 “A” rated gastroenterology practices in the country! Congratulations to Dr. Thomas “Trey” Lyles III, Dr. Jeffrey Mills, Dr. Mark Murray, Dr. James Nackley, Dr. Jessica Shah and Dr. Jay Yepuri for making Fort Worth Magazine’s 2017 Top Doctors.
