In Spring 2018, we visited UT Southwestern medical school in Dallas, Texas. UT Southwestern replaced Baylor School of Medicine when that system was relocated to Houston in 1943. This medical center now has about 230 medical students enrolling in each class with a large focus on research and team-based learning. UT Southwestern faculty physicians offer patient care at UT Southwestern University Hospitals & Clinics, Parkland Health & Hospital System, Children’s Medical Center, Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children, VA North Texas Health Care System, and other affiliated hospitals and community clinics. Training in both private and public hospitals, as well as the location of John F Kennedy's treatment in Parkland hospital, allows for an amazing training in medicine. This medical school has cutting-edge equipment and experiences for medical students.

Note: Penberthy is located on the corner of George Bush Dr. and Penberthy Blvd. It is best to use the school bus system to get there. Routes 35 and 40N take you close enough to the complex.
In Fall 2017, we visited Baylor College of Medicine! Located in the heart of Houston, Baylor College of Medicine is driven to become a major part of the health care and biosciences industry for the area. The medical center of Houston is the largest in the world and therefore presents amazing opportunities for it's students. This school is home to many top ranked specialty programs. The opportunities presented by not only this school, but by the surrounding city, are numerous.
