Texas First Bank

Kim Miller is an active member of MCABW. She has been with Texas First Bank for 18 years and her role is VP Banking Center Manager.

Texas First Bank is a community bank with roots going back to 1973 in Hitchcock, TX. Our customers make us who we are, and we are committed to helping them succeed and build up our local communities.

In 1973, a group of investors organized by Charles T. “Chuck” Doyle, Chairman Emeritus, purchased First State Bank of Hitchcock. The group set goals and successfully established a network of community banks in all ten incorporated cities in Galveston County by the end of the Twentieth Century. By the end of 1999, part of Doyle’s vision became a reality: Texas First Bank could be found in all thirteen cities in Galveston County.

Now, four decades after first opening its doors, Texas First Bank operates 26 banking centers and 52 ATM locations in Southeast Texas across seven counties—Brazoria, Chambers, Galveston, Harris, Jefferson, Liberty, and Montgomery.

At Texas First Bank, our values stay the same—guiding us in our interactions with customers, partners, employees, and the community. They are what define us and help drive us forward.

Clarity Hearing

You never understand the importance of your hearing until it becomes a problem.

You or a loved one may be experiencing signs of hearing loss or are noticing that your hearing isn’t as sharp and resounding as it once was. Although this can feel scary; often the solution is small, simple and nothing to worry about.

In the same way you’d visit the doctor if you had physical health concerns or visit the dentist if you had a tooth-ache; your first step is to book a hearing evaluation so that we can determine what the cause of your reduced hearing may be.

It could be something as simple as a build-up of ear wax or it could be something that requires our audiology expertise, but we’ll be able to help you in a warm friendly environment to determine what the problem may be.

At Clarity Hearing, we’re a locally owned and operated Audiology clinic with five locations in The Woodlands, Conroe, Cypress, Tomball and the Wharton area – Dr. Scott Marquardt and our leading team of Audiology specialists are community focused and make it our duty to help any residents with hearing care concerns.
