After a long search, Dr. Quezada and his wife briefly moved to East Texas to Longview. He attempted to make a home there and was blessed to have made many friends and new family. He attempted to bring state of the art medicine, narcotic free surgery and latest advances to the communities within East Texas but quickly realized innovation, patient safety and autonomy and racism free medicine are not welcome in East Texas. He sought long and hard to find a new home and was able to find a community which he loved best, taking care of our soldiers and their families in a military and patriotic centered community like the one found in Ft Cavazos.
