The second phase of the plan includes preparation of the Main Tower for accommodating outpatient OB/GYN practices from the Pavilion for Women, and the third phase will backfill the Pavilion for Women with additional inpatient care capacity.

Completion of the first phase is expected by next year, while the overall expansion is estimated to take place in 2024.

After completion, the expansion project will help the health care facility to offer even better service to patients in Houston and across the country.

Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women OB/GYN-in-chief Dr Michael Belfor said: “This expansion plan will not only allow us to increase our delivery volume by about 30%, but will also allow us have more space for specialised clinics and specific programs that will cater to women at every stage of life.

“Patients come from all across the country and the globe to access our world-renowned medical experts and the full continuum of care we offer mothers and babies.

“We are looking forward to increasing our capacity to offer the best care to every woman and child, from the healthiest to the sickest.”
