Meet Your Doctors

Dr. Esther Robbins & Dr. Vivian Lipton met during their residency training at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock. They became instant friends! Having worked with each other during the intense 90-hour work weeks of residency, they understand each other’s practice styles and core values.

Together, they have created a clinic centered on practicing the art of medicine with open hearts, healing hands, and sharp minds.
