Medical Center Health System Has 70+ Years of Community Involvement
Medical Center Health System is part of the Permian Basin community. We define ourselves by our ability to implement and uphold our four key promises within our community:
- Safety – we want to provide healthcare for everyone in an environment that promotes good health and puts none of our patients at risk.
- Positive attitude – time spent in the hospital for yourself or a loved one can be hard. Our staff will always treat you with kindness and try to instill joy during challenging times.
- Be present – we are here for you, providing services you need, across several convenient locations in West Texas.
- Be efficient – we want you to be in and out of our hospital with the highest quality care imaginable.

Food for Thought is going virtual! Until our in-person luncheons resume, we will be providing Food for Thought online. On the second Thursday of every month you will find a new topic and presentation providing insightful news on the latest medical topics. Our goal continues to be to provide information that will keep you informed, healthy and active.
