We are a premier training center for the nation's physicians. Private physicians refer patients to many of Parkland's specialty medicine areas, including epilepsy treatment, arrhythmia management, and diagnostic cardiology. And our trauma and burn centers enjoy international recognition. Our primary mission is to make health care available to all Dallas County residents. Our Regional Burn Center, established in 1962, pioneered skin graft techniques, infection control and nutritional support for burn patients.
Parkland delivers more babies each year than any other hospital in the country.
Our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit cares for more critically ill infants than any other hospital nationwide. Parkland Memorial Hospital has been in its present location since the early 1950's.
