University Health System
University Health System is the public district hospital for the San Antonio, Texas, USA metropolitan area. It is also San Antonio's only health system recognized by U.S. News & World Report, regarded as one of America's Best Hospitals. Owned and operated by Bexar County, it is the third largest public health system in Texas.[1]
As the primary teaching hospital for the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, University Hospital is a regional Level I Trauma Center and a leader in Organ Transplantation.
A full range of medical services is available at fifteen community clinics, including the Texas Diabetes Institute.
The facility is located in the South Texas Medical Center.
Expansion
University Hospital will dramatically increase in size with a $778 million expansion and renovation designed by the Dallas office of Perkins + Will.[2] The expanded hospital will increase the beds from the current 498 to more than 700 and the floor space will nearly double to about 2 million square feet. In addition to adding on a new section, the existing two towers will be renovated and the AirLife helicopter pad will be moved from the south parking garage to the roof of the new, 10-story parking garage currently under construction.[3]
