Big Changes at UTHSCT

TYLER — Big changes are coming to UT Health Science Center at Tyler. Meeting on the Tyler campus, the UT Board of Regents approved the lease of a new property along West Gentry Parkway. Officials tell KETK it will be used as a multi-purpose clinic with educational and meeting spaces. The officials add that through the new property, they’ll “be working with the community to identify those services that will best meet the community’s healthcare needs.” Also, the health science center will start doing business as UT Health Northeast. According to UTHSCT spokespeople, “The official name is still The University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler. We’ll just use the shortened version – UT Health Northeast – to make it easier for people to know what to call us.”
