Delisha Rushing, a vibrant 55-year-old from Cordova, Tennessee, carries a warm smile that lights up every room she enters. But not long ago, that smile was something she hid — not out of choice, but out of necessity.
“I had some serious dental problems,” Delisha recalls. “I needed a crown, and one of my teeth needed repairing. I had some missing teeth, and honestly, it was affecting how I felt about myself.”
For years, Delisha had dreamed of getting dental implants, but the cost always placed them out of reach. “I had looked into it before,” she says, “but it was just so expensive. I kind of gave up hope.”
That’s when a friend told her about Church Health, a place where compassionate care meets people exactly where they are. Encouraged, she spoke with her husband, and together, they decided to learn more.
“God Heard My Prayer” — Delisha Rushing
“From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt the love and compassion,” Delisha says with a smile. “Everyone was kind. They didn’t treat me like a number. They treated me like a person.”

Her dental team didn’t just fix a tooth — they created a plan. They explained everything, step by step, and gave Delisha something she thought she had lost: hope.
“I was so excited,” she says, beaming. “It just seemed like a dream come true. When they talked to me about the plan and the pricing, I thought — God heard my prayer.”
Today, Delisha has her implants — and her confidence — back.
“I love to smile,” she says. “And now I can again. I have comfort. I have everything I wanted.”
To Delisha, a smile means more than just teeth. “You don’t know what a smile does for someone — not just for you, but for the person you give it to. It can change their whole day.”
Her message to others is simple: “Come to Church Health. You won’t be disappointed.”
Because at Church Health, healing is more than medicine where the whole patient is treated. Just ask Delisha.
