Private Practices


After medical school at the University of Cincinnati, Dr. David Hector, II, received training at Ohio’s Good Samaritan Hospital and Cleveland Clinic. Warmer weather and a position at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler brought Dr. Hector south in 1986, and he joined Tyler CVC in 1998. The changes he has seen in the quality of care in East Texas since he arrived have been dramatic. “Medical care has improved dramatically, and to be a part of that new culture and advanced medical care for East Texas is one of the great pleasures of my life,” he says.

I wish all my doctors were like Dr Hector. He listens with interest. He’s observant. He’s professional but friendly. He hears what you’re not saying. To me, he is the best in his field. If I ever get in a bad way, he’s the man I want them to call.

Very caring doctor, I feel confident in his care. He tells you very well what is going on and how to fix or care for it. Highly recommend him.

We LOVE Doctor HECTOR (my wife is also a patient of his) and have been going to see him for 18 years. His staff is great in getting you ready to see him. He takes time with you to listen and explains in a way that a country boy can understand what is going on with your heart and what treatment he is recommending. We think he is the BEST HEART DOCTOR around the East Texas Area.

I have seen Dr. Hector and his nurse for many years. I have total confidence in both of them. Dr. Hector has a kind nature and good bedside manner, even when I argue with him).He tells me "like it is", which I really appreciate, His nurse is really sweet, quick, and efficient.
