Scott & White Bone and Joint Institute, Temple
Groundbreaking: May 2012
Scheduled completion: End of 2013
Fundraising goal: $6 million
The Bone and Joint Institute
is the largest comprehensive
orthopaedic practice in Central
Texas. Its expansive growth in
recent years serves as evidence
that more patients need the
specialty expertise of its Scott &
White clinicians. In fact, demand
for services is expected to double
by 2020, and Scott & White is
creating a dedicated facility to
care for patients’ multifaceted
musculoskeletal needs. As the
first in the state of Texas to
offer an integrated resource
with expertise focused on eight
clusters of musculoskeletal
care, we specialize in hand and
wrist issues, ankle and foot
problems, joint replacement,
musculoskeletal oncology,
spine conditions, orthopaedic
trauma, sports medicine, and
pediatric orthopaedics. The new
75,000-square-foot facility on the
Scott & White Memorial Hospital
campus in Temple will also house
post-acute support services,
such as physical medicine and
rehabilitation, physical therapy, and
occupational therapy. As demand
increases rapidly, we must be
prepared to meet the need with the
highest caliber of care. Acquiring
the specialized equipment and other
resources necessary to outfit the
institute with everything patients
need is a vital next step. Learn more
about the Bone and Joint Institute,
including research and education
efforts, on page 18. n
