Practice Closed

Letter to Patients:

Dear Patients,

After 22 years of serving the North Texas Community Rhonda D. Hopkins MD will be permanently closed effective December 31, 2023. Dr. Hopkins, alongside esteemed nurse practitioners Diane Womack, Stephanie Atkinson, and Lindsay Godfrey, have deeply valued the relationships formed over the past 23 years. Sharing life’s pivotal moments, and the unwavering support has been a source of strength during Dr. Hopkins' battle with cancer.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve you and your families for the past 22 years. We love our patients deeply and want to thank them for their understanding during this transition.

We Love You All,

The Hopkins
