NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Millions of people across the country live in healthcare deserts including right here in Middle Tennessee. It means getting to a doctor's office is a lot harder.
Nashville General Hospital is working to change that in the Bordeaux community.
Robert Taylor has lived in the community for 25 years. He said finding a doctor close by isn’t easy.
"We don’t have anything in this community that can provide any type of healthcare services other than going to Nashville General Hospital or finding an Urgent Care on West End or somewhere," Bordeaux resident Robert Taylor.
Nashville General Hospital’s CEO Dr. Joseph Webb, a Tennessee State University graduate, wanted to change that.
