Texas Health Resources is planning a new outpatient services and physician-practice medical center just off I-20 in Arlington, a roughly 55,000-square-foot, two-story building expected to bring adult and family medicine, orthopedics, heart and vascular care, sports medicine and on-site lab services under one roof. The $13.5 million project would rise at 4000 Matlock Road, in a stretch of the city already home to competing health systems.
The project was filed by Texas Health Resources with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations in August, according to Fort Worth Report. The facility is currently referred to in state paperwork as the Texas Health Resources Arlington Centralized Ambulatory Center, though the outlet notes it has not yet been formally named.
Construction is scheduled to begin in April 2027, with completion expected that August, the outlet reports. That puts the finished center on track for completion by the end of 2027, folding several specialties into a single stop for patients who might otherwise have to shuttle between separate offices.
Consolidating Care Under One Roof
Texas Health Physicians Group is set to staff practices at the new site specializing in adult and family medicine, orthopedic services, and heart and vascular care, per the same report. Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital will also provide sports medicine services at the center, which will include its own on-site laboratory.
Lori Clay said the facility will help simplify the healthcare experience, reduce the need to travel between multiple locations and support the growing healthcare needs of the Arlington community. Much of Texas Health Resources' existing footprint in the area centers on Arlington Memorial Hospital, with just one family care location currently serving the nearby neighborhood.
A Crowded Corner Of Arlington's Health Care Map
The Matlock Road site sits near other health systems already serving south Arlington, including Medical City Arlington, a nearby competing operator. That hospital recently wrapped its own major build-out — a $144 million expansion featuring a new patient tower, four additional specialty operating rooms, a modernized main entrance and an expanded visitor lobby, according to Medical City Healthcare.
That project added more than 127,000 square feet and 60 beds, pushing the hospital's total bed count to 496, and included 12 new post-anesthesia care unit bays along with intensive care units for neurology and cardiovascular patients. Medical City Healthcare says the additions are expected to boost the hospital's overall surgical capacity by 50%. Over five years, the health system says it has invested more than $1.7 billion in capital improvements across its facilities.
Texas Health Resources' new outpatient center is considerably smaller in scale and cost, but it reflects the same competitive pressure shaping Arlington's health care corridor along I-20 — with two systems building out capacity within reach of one another to serve patients in the area.
