We are weeks away from opening the doors to our first hospital in Austin. Texas Children’s #OneAmazingTeam, at all our Austin locations, has been hard at work growing our culture of care in the region and preparing to open North Austin Campus. By providing the right care in the right place from the right people, our mission to create a healthier future for the people of Austin and Central Texas is just getting started.
“I am beyond thrilled and incredibly proud that we are finally nearing the finish line of what has been a culmination of years of vision, planning and tremendous hard work,” said President & CEO Mark A. Wallace in an email to the organization. “There are some moments in our history that are monumental beginnings of new chapters and this is indeed one of them.”
The brand new, state-of-the art, $485 million campus will cater to both children and women with a comprehensive range of inpatient and outpatient services – many of which are not available locally or even offered at our own community hospitals in Houston. The hospital will open in phases with details below.

Texas Children’s has been building a presence in Austin since 2018, starting with the opening of Urgent Care in Westgate and Mopac Specialty Care. We acquired and forged partnerships with providers across the region to build a network of 18 Texas Children’s Pediatrics locations, and we’re not stopping there. Texas Children’s Hospital – North Austin is the centerpiece of a strategically planned care model, designed to meet the unique, specialized needs of Austin’s children and women.
Now ranked #1 in Texas and #3 in the nation, we’re bringing the best to Austin. Click here for countdown updates, resources and more on the Austin Expansion SharePoint.
