Children’s Medical Center Dallas continues to be the only hospital in North Texas ranked in all 10 pediatric specialties in the U.S. News & World Report’s annual Best Children’s Hospitals report, which is based on patient treatment outcomes, clinical resources and compliance with best practices.

The North Texas Population is growing, and we need to meet the unique and wide-ranging needs of kids now and for generations to come.

For more than 60 years, we’ve worked together with UT Southwestern Medical Center to provide incredible health care for children. Together, we’re the only joint pediatric enterprise in North Texas equipped to conduct leading-edge studies that lead to breakthroughs in pediatric illnesses.

Children’s Health is home to one of the most comprehensive pediatric mental health services for children with a variety of programs, including our newest program Behavioral Health Integration and Guidance (BHIG). Our goal is to help your child have earlier access to mental health support.

What makes Children's Health different? The Patient Experience
