When time is critical, more than 3,900 lifesavers stand ready with innovative technology, highlevel trauma and orthopedic services, advanced neurosurgery and neurocritical care, one of the area’s leading organ transplant programs, and above all, compassionate quality care. In critical moments, Methodist Dallas is here for life.
