A Note to Our Patients:

Dr Britton West, the Founder of our group, retired from medical practice in December 2016.  He has served the Fort
Worth medical community as a surgeon, mentor and teacher for 38 years.  We are indebted to him for his dedication to
healing and caring for thousands of patients.

Our group's three active physicians are pleased to offer seamless and continuing care for all of Dr. West's patients.  We
maintain all of the medical records for Dr. West's patients and look forward to continuing his legacy of care and
expertise in colon and rectal surgery.
