The Texas Club of Internists | 100 Years of Medical Excellence and a Lifetime of Friendships

Welcome to one of the most dynamic medical professional and social organizations in Texas, as well as the US. The Texas Club of Internists (TCI) is an organization whose members number among the more outstanding internists in the state. Not only must members exhibit outstanding professional qualities, but they must also have social attributes that lend richness and compatibility to the group. Throughout the years of existence of the TCI, professional accomplishment and friendliness have been the hallmarks of prospective membership. TCI then, is truly a club as opposed to a society or an association.

The TCI was organized in 1924 and has existed continuously since that time, even throughout the 2020 pandemic.  (You can read the detailed history of the TCI by visiting the History tab of the website.)

   TCI Welcomes Timothy Hernandez, MD
TCI President (2025-26)  

The Texas Club of Internists is proud to welcome Dr. Timothy Hernandez of San Antonio as our new Board President.

A native of San Antonio, Dr. Hernandez has been a steadfast leader within TCI, serving for years as the Southwestern District Chair and holding various key roles, including Treasurer and Secretary. His commitment to advancing adult medicine and supporting physician education across Texas is unwavering.

Dr. Hernandez's medical journey began at the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology. He then obtained his medical degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, completing his residency in Internal Medicine there as well. His dedication to medical education is evident in his role as a clinical professor of medicine at his alma mater, where he enjoys mentoring residents and students.

Professionally, Dr. Hernandez practices at Pasteur Medical Associates in San Antonio, where he offers concierge internal medicine services. His approach to patient care emphasizes clear communication and patient education, ensuring that individuals are well-informed about their health decisions.

As TCI embarks on a new chapter, Dr. Hernandez, alongside his wife Denise Vega, is instrumental in planning our highly anticipated 2025 Fall Meeting in Mexico City—a destination meeting that reflects the organization’s expanding vision and commitment to global engagement. The meeting will take place October 6–11 at The Ritz-Carlton, Mexico City, with an optional post-meeting excursion to San Miguel de Allende from October 11–14. (Hotel reservations are now open, and members are encouraged to pre-register online through the Fall Meeting page of the website.)

Join us in congratulating Dr. Hernandez on his new role and in supporting his leadership as we navigate this exciting journey ahead!
