DeTar Healthcare System is your community healthcare provider.

The physicians, staff and volunteers of the DeTar Healthcare System pride themselves on caring for our community. The father and son physician team of William and Webb T. DeTar opened the area’s first hospital, Valley View Hospital, in a two-story, white wood framed, colonial style home on the corner of Navarro and San Antonio streets in 1924. Since then, the DeTar “family,” as we call it, has grown to a team of 1,200 staff members, 179 physicians and more than 60 volunteers who dedicate themselves to keeping our community healthy.

Our two fully-functioning acute care hospitals, DeTar Hospital Navarro and DeTar Hospital North, have been recognized for providing quality care by the Joint Commission and offer services one may expect to travel miles to receive, such as:

• A cardiac program with two cardiac catheterization labs, an electrophysiology program and open-heart surgery

• Both Level III and Level IV Trauma Centers
• A Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with the area’s only program providing 24-hour coverage with in-house neonatologists
