When most people think of Texas, they picture oil fields, cattle ranches, or wide-open skies. But tucked in the heart of Houston is something just as remarkable—the Texas Medical Center (TMC), officially recognized as the largest medical complex on Earth. Spanning over 1,345 acres, the TMC is a massive destination that feels less like a hospital and more like an entire city dedicated to health. It is a constellation of over 60 member institutions, including world-class hospitals, four medical schools, and numerous specialty and research centers that attract patients and innovators from every continent.
