SOUTHLAKE
Methodist Southlake Medical Cen- ter is on track to open an expanded emergency room later this year. Ocials with the Methodist Health System broke ground in November on the 4,000-square-foot expansion, which will quadruple the size of the current emergency room, according to a news release from the hospital. The extra room will also mean a larger patient waiting area and expanded diagnostic capabilities, the release stated. “This project is one of several key investments that Methodist Health System is making in Southlake this year as we work to be families’ trusted choice for health and well- ness,” Methodist Health System CEO Jim Scoggin said in the release.

The expansion is part of the hospi- tal’s eorts to become a full-service acute-care hospital after being added to the Methodist Health System as a wholly owned facility in June 2021, the release stated. “Expanding the emergency department and growing Methodist Southlake Medical Center is import- ant to me professionally, but it is also
important to me personally,” said Pamela Stoyano, Methodist Health System president and chief operating ocer, in the release. “I have lived in Southlake for nearly 14 years now, and my husband, Mike, and I raised our kids here. I know how special this city is, and how much the families in Northeast Tarrant County deserve the compassionate, quality health care
that Methodist provides.” The emergency room remains open to patients during construction, which is expected to be nished by late August, hospital ocials say. Methodist Southlake Medical Cen- ter is the 11th hospital in North Texas for the Methodist Health System. To learn more information, visit www.methodisthealthsystem.org.
