The ILC Clinic
We deeply regret to announce the Dallas International Health Services Clinic will have to cease operations effective April 30, 2026. The main reasons are a 66% decrease in patients over the last 10 years, Dr. Irvine's planned retirement in 2026 and there is no one to take over medical responsibility for the clinic. We pray this advance notice gives you adequate time to take care of several items you may wish to handle prior to this date.
You can obtain a copy of your medical file by completing a Google request form Request for Medical Records. If you prefer there are printed copies at the clinic you can complete and return to the clinic or email it to clinic_dallas@sil.org. There is a nominal fee for copying records.
Now is a good time to start looking for a new primary care provider for your medical needs as many doctors are booked far in advance. We have a list of Dallas area physicians that you can request.
If you haven’t had a physical in the last year – now is a great time to get that scheduled.
Any prescriptions for medications you take will need to be written by a new doctor after April 30th.
Are your vaccinations current? If not, please be sure to request any vaccinations you need. Consults for tetanus, meningitis or yellow fever vaccinations need to be scheduled as early in 2026 as possible.
Until April 30th we will continue to see patients as usual. Please know this is a hard decision and we regret the inconvenience it will cause. Please pray for the clinic staff as this will affect many people other than our patients.
