The story of the East Texas Medical Center Regional Healthcare System is as new as the most sophisticated medical technology - and as old as the need to care for one another. Our philosophy of service transformed what was once one hospital drawing referrals from its surrounding area into a seamless system of primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare facilities and services throughout East Texas. A system with one mission: bringing to the people of our region the care they deserve - care that is first in East Texas, second to none.
