Westover Baptist Medical Office Building

Mon, 11 Feb 2008 00:00:00 GMT

Baptist is the first health system to bring medical services to the Westover area with the June opening of the Westover Baptist Medical Office Building. Baptist M&S Imaging is the anchor tenant in the building and features all the latest and best imaging technology available for the diagnosis and treatment of disease and injury. The office building, located at 3903 Wiseman, also provides space for primary care physicians wishing to bring medical care to people living in west Bexar County. Trip Pilgrim, president and CEO of Baptist Health System, said the office building will serve a population that is currently forced to travel outside their neighborhood for healthcare. "This medical office building will help bring much-needed primary and specialty physicians to the area."

Atlee Development is currently leasing space and is offering tenants ownership in the building. Until now, the closest medical office buildings, surgical centers and hospitals for residents of west San Antonio and Bexar County have been at least 20-minutes away in the Medical Center. Westover Baptist Medical Campus will ultimately consist of the medical office building and outpatient surgical center, with plans to add a new hospital as the demand for healthcare services in the area continues to grow.

West Bexar County is the fastest growing area in San Antonio according to a 2004 report by Metro Study. Residential growth in west Bexar County last year represented 35 percent of all homes built compared to 24-percent in the northern sector, 18 percent in the northeast and 8-percent in the northwest. The immediate population the hospital medical campus will serve is estimated to be in excess of 200,000 people. In addition, there are approximately 44,000 students and employees along the Hwy. 151 corridor from Kelly USA to 1604.

The new medical campus is being built at Wiseman and Highway 151 and will ultimately comprise 40-acres.

A Support Group for those with Cancer

Thu, 20 Dec 2007 00:00:00 GMT

Going through a major illness can be more than just physically taxing. There can be an emotional toll on the individual coping with the illness, as well as on their family members and friends. The Baptist Health System Cancer Support Group offers an invaluable resource of emotional and educational support for families with a loved one who is experiencing a cancer diagnosis, going through treatment or recovery.

"There is strength in sharing and learning from those who have experienced the fear, the pain and the stress of dealing with cancer," said Susan Lake, RN, OCN, AMSRN, a clinical nurse specialist in oncology and support group facilitator.

The American Cancer Society facilitates the support group allowing attendees to benefit from the considerable resources and knowledge offered by the non-profit organization. At each meeting educational information is given to attendees on subjects related to cancer. Among the topics discussed are; Cancer diagnosis and treatment, Side effects of treatment, Emotions and self-esteem, Cancer and intimacy, Community resources, Pain management, Nutrition and fatigue, Financial concerns, and more.
