Hospital
North Central Baptist Hospital features separate adult and pediatric emergency departments. Baptist Children's Hospital features pediatric surgery and anesthesia specialists as well as a PICU. Excellent specialty coverage of neurosurgery is available across the five hospitals in San Antonio's Baptist Health System. Enjoy a simple "one call" system for admissions and transfers. NPs and PAs practice independently in the ED, meaning physicians have no APP charts to sign.
Community
San Antonio is a city rich in history, culture, education and recreation. Residents enjoy all the advantages of living in a large city without sacrificing a sense of community and small-town vibe. Home of the Alamo, the San Antonio Spurs, and the famous River Walk promenade lined with cafes and shops, there is always something of interest to enjoy. Residential opportunities abound with historic, downtown area bungalows, beautiful established estate homes, suburbs with outstanding public-school systems and rural areas for those preferring wide, open space. In addition to UT at San Antonio, there are numerous colleges and universities.
