The Palestine Herald, May 18, 2007 PALESTINE - After three-plus years of long commutes and hurricanes, pediatrician Dr. Davida Wardell began looking for a place where she could build a practice while avoiding the hassles of big city life. She found everything she was looking for and more when she moved to Palestine last month to join Dr. John Ross, Dr. Michael Garcia and Karen Seitz at Pediatric Associates. Dr. Wardell, who officially began seeing patients May 1, came to Palestine from Clear Lake, a suburb south of Houston. She had worked at the NASA Bay Pediatric clinic in Nassau Bay for over almost four years.
