KATY, TX (Covering Katy News) – Houston Methodist is setting a new benchmark in health care with the groundbreaking of a $62 million comprehensive care center in west Cinco Ranch. The 65,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility, located adjacent to the Houston Methodist Emergency Care Center is a short distance west of Spring Green Boulevard at 26000 FM 1093 at Cinco Rose Drive.
The new facility aims to transform patient care by offering an integrated array of services tailored to meet the needs of the expanding community. The center is expected to open in early 2026.
“This is not just a building; it’s a new approach to health care,” said Stephen Spielman, senior vice president and chief operating officer of the Houston Methodist Physician Organization. “Our new comprehensive care center will change the way people access care, making it easier, faster, and more patient-focused than ever before. From routine checkups to specialized treatments, it’s all here—right in the heart of the community.”
A New Era of Health Care
The new Houston Methodist Comprehensive Care Center will enhance convenience by consolidating a broad range of services under one roof, including:
- Primary care and same-day clinic appointments
- Specialty care in orthopedics, neurology, gastroenterology, urology, and rheumatology
- Advanced imaging, lab services, and physical therapy
More than a mere collection of services, the center is designed to improve care coordination and reduce the need for patients to attend multiple appointments at different locations.
