College Station Medical Center Aligns With St. Joseph Health

College Station Medical Center is now affiliated with St. Joseph Health. As advocates for creating healthier communities in the Brazos Valley, we're excited about combining our strengths and expanding our mission-based healthcare services in College Station.

Working as part of our continued partnership with Texas A&M Health Science Center, this expansion will also include all of College Station Medical Associates services, including primary care, adding more care providers to St. Joseph and Texas A&M Health Network. 

The facility will be renamed St. Joseph Health College Station Hospital. This hospital is an accredited Chest Pain Center, a certified Primary Stroke Center, and a Joint Commission-accredited joint replacement program.
