University Health is expanding its presence in San Antonio with the groundbreaking of the Wheatley clinic, a three-story, 60,000-square-foot medical complex named after African American poet Phillis Wheatley. The clinic will be located near the Wheatley Sports Complex on the East Side and is set to open in early 2026. The facility will offer primary care, urgent care, and pharmacy services, along with serving as a secondary location for the University Hospital’s Institute for Public Health.
The construction of the Wheatley clinic received support from the Bexar County Commissioners Court, who allocated $40 million from the American Recovery Act Plan to support this expansion. University Health’s President and CEO, George B. Hernández Jr., expressed his vision for the new clinic as an opportunity to improve access to care and bring the latest technologies, specialists and health education resources closer to home for thousands of families on San Antonio’s East Side.
Precinct 4 County Commissioner Tommy Calvert commended the project for its dedication to promoting a healthy community on San Antonio’s East Side. He thanked Eastern Triangle advocacy group for their efforts towards healthcare improvements and recognized University Health and Bexar County Commissioners Court for responding to their community’s needs. This expansion is part of University Health’s ongoing efforts to provide quality healthcare services to residents in San Antonio.
