Dell Children’s North Celebrates Three Years of Expanding Pediatric Care in Central Texas

Dell Children's Medical Center North Campus is proud to celebrate its third anniversary of serving families in Central Texas.

Dell Children's has been recognized for its exceptional pediatric care, earning seven national specialty rankings in the U.S. News & World Report's 2025-2026 Best Children's Hospitals list.

“Reaching our third anniversary is a milestone that reflects our deep commitment to the health and well-being of every child in our region,” said Dell Children’s President, Adam Messer. “Dell Children’s North was built to bring the expertise and compassionate care of Dell Children’s closer to where our families live. We are very proud of our physicians, nurses, and staff whose dedication has made this possible, and we look forward to continuing to grow and serve the community for many years to come.”

Dell Children's North offers essential, child-focused services and was designed specifically with pediatric patients and their families in mind.
