Texas Health Huguley to Open Spine Center

BURLESON, TEX. – Texas Health Huguley Hospital, in partnership with Lone Star Orthopaedic and Spine Specialists, announced the groundbreaking of a spine and orthopaedic center, a new patient-focused facility on the hospital’s campus that’s been designed to expand access to high-quality spine and orthopaedic care for the growing communities it serves.

The new center will significantly enhance the hospital’s ability to care for more patients, reduce wait times and bring advanced capabilities closer to home. 

With dedicated clinical spaces, expanded imaging and industry-leading treatment areas, the new facility will allow care teams to diagnose and treat conditions with greater precision, efficiency and comfort for patients.

“Patients will find expert care, advanced treatment options and a team who sees each individual as more than a diagnosis,” said Penny Johnson, president and CEO of Texas Health Huguley Hospital. “They’ll be welcomed into an environment designed to support healing of the body, mind and spirit—a reflection of Texas Health Huguley’s mission to extend the healing ministry of Christ.”

The 71,000-square-foot building will include a floor with imaging; surgical pre-testing; and a therapy clinic offering physical therapy, occupational therapy and sports rehabilitation. A second floor will house the Lone Star Orthopaedic and Spine Specialists practice, and a third floor will house the Ambulatory Surgery Center dedicated to orthopaedic and spine surgery.

“This building will empower Lone Star Orthopaedics to deliver exceptional, high-quality care right here at home,” said Gurpreet Bajaj, MD, board-certified orthopaedic surgeon with Lone Star Orthopaedic and Spine Specialists. “With advanced technology and a unified team under one roof, this facility will create an orthopaedic center of excellence that stands among the region’s leading destinations for orthopaedic care.”

The new building is scheduled to open in 2027, marking another milestone in expanding health access and specialized care across North Texas.
