The Texas Children's Hospital West Campus in Katy is quickly taking shape and is on schedule to open in 2010. The massive growth on the west side of Houston has many Hospital and medical facilities opening branches in the Katy area. Research has projected that the West Houston/Katy area will be the epicenter of Houston in short order with a 51 percent pediatric population growth between 2000 and 2015.

Other hospital chains with plans in the Katy area are Methodist Hospital and St Luke's. Memorial Hermann has a new Katy campus and Christus St Catherine has been open for a few years. MD Anderson also has a new cancer center as part of the Christus St Catherine campus.
