UT Health San Antonio opens facility on UTSA Park West campus

In 2021, UT Health San Antonio became the official health care partner for UTSA Athletics providing student-athletes with access to the health science center's distinguished physicians and clinicians for primary care, physical therapy and other specialties, and for imaging and surgical services.

"Our continued partnership with UT Health allows us to provide world-class care to our Roadrunner community, especially to our student-athletes, coaches and staff who are competing at higher levels than ever before," said UTSA President Taylor Eighmy. "I'm immensely grateful to Dr. Henrich-whose vision and legacy will live on through his impactful work-his colleagues at UT Health and my colleagues at UTSA for continually collaborating to create new opportunities for wellbeing that make our university a great place to learn, work and discover."

UTSA is committed to the well-being of its faculty and staff through a competitive, comprehensive benefits package that allows all benefits-eligible faculty and staff to receive special discounts when they use the UT SELECT medical plan at UT Health Physicians, the clinical practice of UT Health San Antonio, and the new UT Health at Kyle Seale Parkway location. Discounts include reduced copays for both primary care and specialty providers and lower coinsurance rates.

"UTSA's strategic collaboration with UT Health will bring convenient and high-quality health care services to our benefits eligible employees on-site at our Park West Campus," said Veronica Salazar, UTSA executive vice president of business affairs and chief enterprise development officer. "This access to affordable and exemplary health care aligns closely with our efforts to enhance the campus experience and supports UTSA's goal to be a great place to work."

UT Health at Kyle Seale Parkway is a five-story, 108,000-square-foot medical facility delivering primary, specialty and surgical care. Patients can receive primary care, lab work, imaging, specialty care and day surgery all within this full-service outpatient facility.

UT Health at Kyle Seale Parkway offers primary care, gastroenterology, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopaedics, otolaryngology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, physical therapy, and urology services. Patients also have access to the latest diagnostic laboratory testing and convenient imaging services including MRI, CT scan, X-ray and ultrasound. Starting in mid-April the facility will open its ambulatory surgery center with four modern operating rooms.
