My connection to CHI St . Luke ’ s Health is profound and personal . More than 60 years ago , my family built the original St . Luke ’ s Episcopal Hospital , which now stands in the heart of the Texas Medical Center ( TMC ).
My family and I have received outstanding treatment there , and I am proud to be involved in the development and construction of the groundbreaking new hospital rising on the south side of the TMC . Much has changed since St . Luke ’ s first opened its doors in 1954 . This outstanding single hospital in the heart of our city has evolved into the complex , multi-facility system we see today .
From The Woodlands and Sugar Land , to Lake Jackson , Lufkin , and East Texas , CHI St . Luke ’ s Health is growing and changing to meet the needs of those it serves and those it needs to serve .
