Athens
Tyler, Texas (December 17, 2025) — Babies born at UT Health East Texas this month are heading home with a special holiday surprise. In celebration of the season, UT Health East Texas is gifting all new mothers a festive stocking embroidered with the UT Health East Texas logo.
Newborns arriving at UT Health facilities in Tyler, Athens, Jacksonville and Henderson receive this meaningful keepsake — a tradition many families say they treasure for years, often looking back in amazement that their baby was once small enough to fit inside the stocking.
