Pavilion for Women About Us

At Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women, we care for women in all stages of their lives and for children from preconception to long after birth. We have pioneered a collaborative working relationship between obstetricians, gynecologists, pediatricians and many subspecialists — all in one location — to give children the best start possible even before birth. We know to improve the health of children, we must start with the health of mothers.

Every step of the patient’s interaction with the Pavilion from consultation to discharge is our family-centered approach designed to encourage trust, understanding and family bonding. Ranked third in the nation for neonatology by U.S. News & World Report, Texas Children’s houses the first level IV neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Texas, the highest level of care available for newborns. In the Pavilion for Women, our combined level 2 and 3 neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) offers specialty care for newborns. Texas Children's Pavilion for Women prides itself on the fact that no mother and no baby will be turned away due to the complexity or rarity of their medical condition.

Our Progress

In 2012, Texas Children’s opened the Pavilion for Women in the Texas Medical Center campus to meet what was then a growing demand for women’s services. The facility offers state-of-the-art care for every aspect of women’s health, including mental health, minimally invasive surgery, fertility treatments and genetic counseling.

Texas Children’s continued to embrace the needs of women for a spectrum of health care such as lifetime well-woman care before, during and after birth as well as services such as gynecological surgery and treatment, contraceptive management and The Menopause Center. Our forethought resulted in the construction of Pavilion Tower II, which open in August 2023. To facilitate the continued collaboration of our medical staff and to benefit patient care and access, the two Pavilions for Women are connected by a skybridge.

Our continuing goal of providing health services to women is evident in each of the Pavilion community clinics, with an OB/GYN clinic in Pearland and a family fertility center at The Woodlands campus. Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women Austin includes a maternal-fetal medicine clinic and an OBGYN clinic; a new children’s and women’s hospital is scheduled to open this year.
