In 1919, McAllen Municipal Hospital opened its doors to serve the people of the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Today, our thriving healthcare facility, with 441 beds, offers a broad range of community-focused services. McAllen Medical Center serves one of the fastest-growing areas in the nation. We are committed to keeping pace with our patients' changing needs by offering advanced healthcare technology and techniques whenever possible. Today, our medical staff includes more than 400 physicians representing over 50 medical specialties.
No matter what time of day or night, there’s a team of emergency medicine doctors and nurses ready for you at McAllen Medical Center.
Doctors and nurses like Kenneth Ro, MD, and Lori Cano, RN.
“We have some of the best emergency physicians in the valley covering the specialties,” says Dr. Ro, medical director of the Emergency Department.
And, says nurse Cano, doctors and nurses at McAllen Medical Center work well together. “We work together as a family,” she says. “There’s a lot of teamwork.”
That’s just one reason why EMS crews bring patients to the Emergency Department at McAllen Medical Center, the designated Lead Level III Trauma Center in Hidalgo County.
