“Providing care for patients is a privilege—but advocating for them is a responsibility.” Meet Dr. Priyanka Jagannathan, Chief Resident at Dell Seton Medical Center and a graduate of Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin.

Now, as an attending physician, she’s shaping the next generation of doctors while helping create a stronger, more equitable future for health care in Central Texas.

What started as a fight for her own health became a calling to uplift others. Now in remission, Laura Cruz brings compassion and calm to everyone who visits Central Health — a living testament to resilience, hope, and community. This month, she joined thousands at the Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk in Austin to celebrate strength, survivorship, and connection. “I greet everybody with a smile every day, no matter how my day is,” she says, a reflection of the strength that carried her through breast cancer and into a new chapter helping others feel seen and supported.

Access to healthy food is essential to good health, but for many residents in eastern Travis County, it’s out of reach. Through its partnership with Farmshare Austin, Central Health is addressing this challenge head-on. The Fresh for Less Mobile Market program, first piloted at our Southeast Health & Wellness Center, now operates at four sites across the Central Health system, bringing locally grown, affordable food directly to communities in need. It’s part of our broader effort to build a connected system of care that treats food as medicine, improving health outcomes one meal at a time.
