HHM Health has officially opened The Pearl Women’s Center in Arlington, a comprehensive obstetrics and gynecological facility that serves as the fourth federally qualified health center in Tarrant County. The center, located on the Medical City Arlington campus at 3201 Matlock Road, opened in October and held its ribbon-cutting ceremony on April 8, offering obstetric and gynecological care along with access to behavioral health services, hormonal therapies, and eye care.
Dr. Victoria Dillard, the center’s principal physician, described her vision for the facility: “I want to make it an oasis for women. I want people to come here and feel supported, heard and empowered to live their best life.” Since opening, the center has grown significantly—from averaging about four patients daily in its initial weeks to seeing approximately 20 patients daily as of the ribbon-cutting event.
The center’s mission reflects HHM Health’s commitment to addressing health care disparities in Texas. CEO Brian A. Hawkins stated that the organization aims to “break that gap” and provide “world-class health care that just happens to be at an FQHC,” emphasizing that serving uninsured and underserved populations does not mean compromising on the standard of care. As a federally qualified health center, the facility receives federal grant funding to provide holistic medical care in areas with limited access.
The Pearl Women’s Center is establishing partnerships to expand its offerings. Patients can receive care at the center while accessing delivery services at Medical City Arlington, and the facility is partnering with Delighted to Doula to provide continued postpartum support. Dr. Dillard emphasized that the center aims to serve women across all life stages, stating: “We are able to provide comprehensive care, no matter what stage of life the patients are in.”
