The University of Texas Health Science Center

at San Antonio

“The Health Science Center began as a dream, planted in a remote pasture on the far northwest side of town. Only about half a million people lived in the city back then, but local visionaries, leaders in the medical and business communities, and a group of lawmakers thought it was the perfect place to cultivate a new generation of physicians – and, later, dentists, nurses and other health care professionals. They were right.” —Dr. Cigarroa

UTHSCSA1959

14

“Today, the Health Science Center is a vital part of San Antonio’s $8 billion biotechnology industry, an industry that grew more than 7.5 percent last year and provides 15 percent of the jobs in San Antonio. Our own university educates 200 new physicians each year, provides a vast amount of continuing medical education, treats over a million patients each year, and offers more than $80 million in uncompensated care to the medically indigent.”

--Dr Cigarroa
