Internal Adoption Clinic

The concept for an international adoption medical clinic in the North Texas area was born in the heart and mind of pediatrician, Bruce Eckel, M.D. This evolved through his involvement with International Adoptive Families, a support group for families involved in international adoption. As medical consultant to the group and as an adoptive parent of a child from China, he saw firsthand the need for specialized knowledge and expertise in the issues related to the adoption of children from other countries. Over a period of four years, Dr. Eckel pursued his goal of providing expertise to those interested in foreign adoptions. Through self study and additional training with the renowned International Adoption Medical Clinic at the University of Minnesota, he helped the North Texas International Adoption Clinic become a reality in 2001.
