Dallas-based Baylor Scott & White Health opened a new 84-bed hospital July 22 in one of the fastest-growing areas of the country.

Frisco, Texas-based Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Frisco at PGA Parkway is located within 24 miles of three of the fastest-growing cities with populations over 20,000, according to a June 27 news release from the health system. 

Between July 2023 and July 2024, Princeton saw its population increase by 30.6%, Celina saw its population grow 18.2% and Anna’s population grew 14.6%, according to a May 15 report from the U.S. Census Bureau. 

“As North Texas continues to grow, this new medical center is poised to meet the needs of a thriving region,” Ryan Gebhart, president of Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Frisco at PGA Parkway, said in the release. 

Mr. Gebhart said in the release that the new medical center is interconnected with the health system’s digital care options. For example, at the hospital’s Center for Women and Infants, expectant mothers can use the MyBSWHealth app or website to connect to prenatal services, educational tools, and 24/7 access to virtual care. Upon arrival to the hospital, they will find a dedicated entrance, private elevator, and floor dedicated “exclusively for women, with an environment that reflects the hospital’s focus on comfort, dignity and privacy.”

The 40-acre campus also offers communal green spaces, more than two miles of trails, health and wellness events and activities, with the goal to “blend high-quality care with community-centered innovation.”
