UT Health San Antonio Tops Out Multispecialty, Research Hospital
The $500-million UT Health San Antonio Multispecialty and Research Hospital has topped out. Leaders of The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, community supporters and general contractor Vaughn Construction celebrated the topping out and beam-signing ceremony Oct. 17 in San Antonio’s South Texas Medical Center.
Integral to the design of the hospital is the healing environment with great attention to the patient and family experience. Walking trails that connect around the hospital will help patients and care supporters with stress release. Relaxation and respite areas will include amenities, such as shower facilities where family members may freshen up. Patients will have dining options with room service-style menu offerings.
The hospital will include 12 specialized operating rooms, full imaging capabilities including MRI and CT, laboratory facilities, a blood bank and stem cell lab. The hospital design is 448,819 gross square feet and includes a 673-car parking garage and 200-car surface parking lot. A skybridge will connect the hospital to the Mays Cancer Center, the National Cancer Institute-Designated Cancer Center at UT Health San Antonio.
The hospital is projected to open in the late fall of 2024.
