With the addition of the EDs, Methodist will have nine facilities in the San Antonio area. 

“The expansion of access points for all hospital systems is crucial, especially now during a pandemic,” Methodist Healthcare President and CEO Allen Harrison told the Business Journal.

All five centers operate under the First Choice brand. 

Three of the EDs were previously operated by Dallas-based Steward Health Care. The other two were owned and operated by Adeptus Health.
