Edinburg Children’s Hospital is located in Rio Grande Valley, at the southern tip of Texas, and is part of the South Texas Health System. The system includes five acute care facilities and one behavioral health center.

The 107-bed, freestanding pediatric hospital opened adjacent to Edinburg Regional Medial Center in March 2006. The first of its kind in South Texas, Edinburg Children’s Hospital features a four-story pediatric tower, a dedicated pediatric emergency department and advanced technology, including the Valley’s first 32-slice CT and radioflouroscopy room. To increase capabilities, some resources are shared between Edinburg Children’s Hospital and Edinburg Regional Medical Center, including two of the five existing operating suites that are dedicated to pediatric surgery for Edinburg Children’s Hospital and the Family Emergency Center that serves both children and adults in medical emergencies.  The new children’s hospital is a comprehensive pediatric facility dedicated to general pediatrics, diagnostic cardiology and surgical services.

Because the Valley has one of the country’s fastest growing populations, UHS and South Texas Health System invested $25 million in the first and only children’s hospital located south of Corpus Christi, Texas. Edinburg Children’s Hospital has the potential to grow and expand both general and specialty pediatric services. Edinburg Children's Hospital is an excellent choice for pediatric care and eliminates the need for families to travel far distances to get the care they need.
