"Vaccine Friendly" Pediatricians in Tyler TX or East Texas Area

We hope to move back to Tyler when our baby is around a year old... Any recent issues related to the Docs listed above? Here in Florida, my friends have been getting notices from a formerly vaccine friendly pediatrician who is now dismissing them as patients because of there beliefs in delaying and/or not vaxing. Hopefully this isn't the case in Tyler... Thanks:)

What I also liked was that she doesn't purchase vaccines to keep in office. If and when you choose to have a vaccine for your child she will write you a prescription, you purchase it, bring it back and she will administer it.
