New $100 million Center for Brain Health at UT Health San Antonio: Revolutionizing brain health care with state-of-the-art facilities

A new patient care and clinical trials facility, the Center for Brain Health, is currently under construction at UT Health San Antonio. The $100 million project is part of the university’s $1 billion capital investment plan, which includes the opening of the UT Health San Antonio Multispecialty and Research Hospital in December. The facility is expected to be fully completed by September 2025, with an anticipated opening in December 2025.

The Center for Brain Health will provide expert care for patients with Alzheimer’s disease, related dementias, movement disorders, ALS, and other health concerns. It will also serve as an educational site for medical residents and postgraduate trainees. Designed by Alamo Architects Inc. and TreanorHL, the facility will contain 75 exam rooms, 50 faculty offices, a 12-chair non-oncology infusion center, an outpatient pharmacy, and space for leading research and clinical trials. The five-level building spans 103,500 gross square feet and aims to provide easy access for families and patients under one roof.

Joeris General Contractors, Ltd. is the builder of the project. With its state-of-the-art facilities and expert staff, the center is poised to make a significant impact on brain health care in the San Antonio area and beyond. The construction on the Center for Brain Health is currently about 35% complete.
