Neighborhood Centers Get More Hours and Doctors

Neighborhood Centers Get More Hours and Doctors

The Harris County Hospital District’s neighborhood health centers are expanding their hours to better serve you. On September 1, six centers began staying open later and on Saturdays. These centers include:

Gulfgate

Strawberry

Northwest

Settegast

Aldine

Martin Luther King

Acres Home and Baytown health centers are increasing the number of doctors.

Aldine Health Center

Aldine Health Center expanded its hours on March 1. They also added two new doctors in September.

The $4.5 million health center expansion project is expected to take care of 87,000 new patient visits.

"This expansion provides access to persons who do not have a primary care provider and a medical home," said Alicia Reyes, CHP Administrator. "Some centers have space for more doctors and those with limited room received extended hours."

People’s Health Center in southwest Houston was the first Hospital District center to open six days a week. Its success is the basis for the new expansion.
