Medical City Fort Worth is about to help a whole lot more Tarrant County patients with a $37 million expansion project.

The private healthcare system is in the planning stages of a new cardiac catheterization laboratory and four operating rooms inside its existing Medical District location.

“The expansion will enable Medical City Fort Worth to enhance its capacity for specialized procedures, ensuring the hospital can continue to meet the community’s growing healthcare needs and maintain our high standards of care,” Lizzy Couch, a spokesperson for the hospital, said.

Global architecture studio HKS Inc. will design the 17,380-sqft space. The $18 million construction portion is scheduled to kick off in early 2025 and be complete one year later. Details on the remaining $19 million of the budget have not been released.

According to US News & World Report, Medical City Fort Worth offers high performing care for heart and kidney failure procedures.
