At The Woman’s Hospital of Texas, _our care philosophy is Woman First. It’s in
our name, and it’s in our founding mission_. Our 420+ bed hospital was
founded in 1976 by 29 physicians who recognized a need in Houston for a
facility focused solely on women in all stages of life. We were the first
women’s hospital in Houston and first facility in Texas dedicated to the
health of women and newborns. Today, we are the state’s premier facility
dedicated to the health of women and children offering expertise and an
outstanding level of care in breast health, imaging, gynecology, minimally
invasive surgery, infertility, obstetrics, high-risk pregnancy, and
pediatrics. We deliver 800+ babies a month, more than any other hospital in
Texas, and care for more multiple births than any other hospital in the
region. Our Level IV NICU provides the highest level of care for premature
babies and we have the area’s only March of Dimes NICU Family Support program.
As a member of HCA Houston Healthcare, the most comprehensive healthcare
provider in the region, we are a part of a network that delivers stronger,
smarter and more accessible care to women than any other medical system across
the Houston area.
