It used to take 45 minutes for citizens of Celina to get to the nearest Dallas hospital. That will change next month. Celina’s first hospital is expected to open before the end of March. Once open, the hospital will immediately begin providing emergency and critical care services.
Methodist Celina Medical Center is a 46-acre, $237 million project located at the corner of Dallas Parkway and FM 428. It is roughly three miles from Celina’s downtown square.
The medical center will have 200,000 square feet under roof. In addition, there will be a 40,000-square-foot medical office building with spaces from 2,642 to 7,288 square feet.
Offerings include 30 medical-surgical beds, eight intensive care unit beds, two procedure rooms, one catheterization lab and three operating rooms equipped with a da Vinci surgical robot. The hospital will have 51 beds and can expand to over 100. The hospital will have 200 employees.
