The hospital boasts a 3,000-square-foot sports-medicine center, a floor dedicated to women’s services and outpatient surgical facilities.

Recently, Las Colinas Medical Center completed a 70,000-square-foot medical office building and a $7.8 million addition to its women’s service department.

This major branch of the non-profit Baylor Health Care System houses a cancer center and center for children with special needs, as well as a nationally recognized diabetes program. The hospital has full inpatient and emergency services, and it recently added a 127,000-square-foot medical office building on its campus.

Baylor Irving has consistently been rated one of D/FW’s top medical centers for coronary bypass, angioplasty and general heart-attack care by the Texas Health Information Council. And the Dallas Business Journal named it one of the Best Places to Work in the Metroplex in 2005.
