Fries recognized by financial round table

The Million Dollar Round Table, an association of financial professionals, recently recognized Fries Financial Services owner Denise Fries as a "top of the table" member.

The top of the table is a forum where association members are able to network and exchange ideas related to sales and productivity, according to the association's Web site.

Fries' Bryan-based business, a past winner of the Newman 10 Business Performance Award and the Bryan-College Station Chamber of Commerce's Community Impact Award, has been in operation for 24 years.

Rockdale clinic now accepts S&W plans

Little River Medical Clinic in Rockdale is now accepting Scott & White Health Plan participants for routine gynecological care, officials said.

Drs. Daniel Dawson and David Doss travel from the Brazos Valley Women's Center in Bryan-College Station to see patients in Rockdale.

The physicians provide well-woman exams and procedures such as permanent sterilization, surgical treatment for incontinence and evaluation and treatment of abnormal Pap smears, said clinic spokeswoman Melissa Tackett.

Participants in Scott & White's plan are no longer required to have referrals from their primary care providers to schedule routine visits, Tackett said.

Tackett said the Little River Healthcare System also plans to offer prenatal services at the Rockdale clinic. Dawson and Doss would provide the services, and babies would be delivered in Bryan-College Station.

For more information, contact the clinic at 512-446-4500.
