More than 30 physicians from one of Houston’s most established medical clinics are joining The Methodist Hospital staff today, complementing the already large group of internists practicing here.
 Medical Clinic of Houston, located at 1707 Sunset Blvd., will begin expanding its services to Methodist this week. The Clinic, founded in 1968, has 31 physicians, including specialists in cardiology, rheumatology, gastroenterology and oncology.
 “We are very fortunate to have physicians of this caliber joining our other well-respected internists on staff. We know that their breadth of expertise will contribute to our mission of offering the best available health care to our patients,” said Dr. Rich Robbins, chairman of the Department of Medicine at Methodist.
 Many of the Clinic’s physicians are applying for faculty appointments with Weill Cornell Medical College, Methodist’s academic partner.
  “We are excited about practicing at The Methodist Hospital where we will have opportunities to participate in some innovative patient initiatives,” said Dr. Martin White, managing partner.
