SAN ANTONIO — University Health has opened the Wheatley health center on San Antonio’s East Side, marking the first of four planned facilities in a $1.7 billion expansion.
The center, located on the IH-10 access road at East Houston Street, aims to improve community health and address chronic disease.
“In all we plan and do, we think about our unique charge to improve the good health of the community,” said University Health President and CEO Ed Banos.
The expansion includes the upcoming University Health Vida health center, Palo Alto Hospital and Medical Office Building, and Retama Hospital and Medical Office Building.
The Bexar County Commissioners Court allocated $30 million from the American Recovery Plan Act to support this initiative.
