Health Center of Southeast Texas (HCSET) is set to mark the opening of its newest clinic in the Roman Forest community with a celebration on Monday, Oct. 10, from 9 a.m. to noon. The event, announced on the clinic’s Facebook page, invites local residents to tour the facility, meet staff and learn about the range of health services now available nearby.
Comprehensive Care Under One Roof
According to HCSET’s website, the Roman Forest clinic will provide a full slate of services designed to meet the everyday health needs of families and individuals. Those services include:
- Primary care
- Women’s health
- Pediatric services
- Behavioral health
- Pharmacy services
- Laboratory services
By consolidating these offerings in a single location, HCSET aims to reduce travel time and improve continuity of care for patients throughout the southeast Texas region.
Affordability for All Residents
The clinic accepts Medicaid, Medicare and most major private insurance plans. For patients without insurance, HCSET has instituted a sliding‑fee scale program that adjusts costs based on household income, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to receiving essential health care.
Expanding a Trusted Network
This new site marks HCSET’s seventh clinic in the area. Existing locations already serve residents in Cleveland, Shepherd, Liberty, Livingston and Dayton, creating a network that spans a broad swath of southeast Texas. The addition of the Roman Forest clinic strengthens that network and brings much‑needed health resources closer to families who have previously traveled farther for care.
Community Impact
Local leaders have praised the expansion, noting that increased access to primary and preventive services can lead to healthier outcomes and lower long‑term health costs for the community. The grand‑opening celebration will feature a ribbon‑cutting ceremony, a brief address from HCSET officials, and an opportunity for attendees to ask questions about the clinic’s programs.
Residents are encouraged to attend the celebration, explore the facility and take advantage of the free health screenings that will be offered on the day of the event. HCSET hopes the Roman Forest clinic will become a trusted health partner for the community, supporting families in maintaining wellness and addressing health concerns promptly.
