North Hills Hospital Bariatric Surgery Center

North Hills Hospital, a 176-bed acute care facility, has been serving the growing communities of Northeast Tarrant County for more than 45 years. North Hills Hospital is staffed by caring health care professionals who provide expertise in a variety of medical fields, including bariatric surgery, emergency care, rehabilitation, advanced diagnostics, ICU, PCU, inpatient medical/surgical care, cardiovascular services, women�s services, outpatient surgery, and therapy services. The North Hills Hospital Bariatric Surgery Center provides extensive pre-op education and post-op care, including a local support group to help patients through this life changing surgery. It is part of an elite group of surgery centers to be named a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence based on its outstanding patient outcomes. North Hills Hospital was the first hospital in the United States to have a nationally accredited Cycle II Chest Pain Center, which means that patients will find faster response times and more efficient treatment for chest pain emergencies, including 24-hour access to the cardiovascular cath labs.The hospital recently opened a brand-new luxury women�s services floor that feels more like a hotel than a hospital. It also opened up 23 additional medical/surgical private suites, including a brand-new private bariatric unit as part of its $33 million expansion. Toward the end of 2007 it will open a new heart center and an ambulatory surgery center. www.northhillshospital.com
