Uvalde Memorial Hospital has received and opened requests for proposals (RFP) from the top-five construction manager at risk (CMAR) firms who were selected in a special board meeting held March 3.

Uvalde Medical and Surgical Associates (UMSA) has announced the addition of new orthopedic physician assistant Ryan Teague, PA-C. Teague is board certified and his expertise will add to the existing orthopedic team of Dr. Jack Conoley and Dr. Andrea Barrett who joined UMSA in 2010 and 2015, respectively.

The new building will expand the hospital’s current footprint of 170,000 square feet to an 180,000 square foot configuration. The larger layout will meet regulatory standards and transform the hospital’s delivery of care to better accommodate patients, visitors, and staff with new efficiencies and improved amenities not currently available.
