Learn moreHCA Houston Healthcare Conroe
HCA Houston Healthcare Conroe (formerly Conroe Regional Medical Center) is a 332-bed general medical and surgical acute-care hospital and tertiary referral center that has served Montgomery County for more than 80 years, per HCA's own reporting. It operates a Level II Trauma Center, an Accredited Chest Pain Center, a Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, and DNV-certified Comprehensive Stroke Center status, with services spanning heart and vascular surgery, neurological care, orthopedics, weight-loss surgery, and women's care. It's part of HCA Houston Healthcare's broader 13-hospital network serving the greater Houston area.
CHI St. Luke's Health -- The Woodlands Hospital
CHI St. Luke's Health -- The Woodlands Hospital carries a Conroe, TX 77384 address and is described as serving both North Harris and Montgomery counties as a tertiary care facility, with services spanning cardiovascular care, neurosciences, oncology, orthopedics, bariatric surgery, women's services, and pediatric care. It was recognized as a 2026-2027 Best Regional Hospital by U.S. News & World Report and reports at least 153 resident physicians on staff -- despite "The Woodlands" in its name, it is a genuinely Conroe-area facility by address.
A Growing Local Healthcare Sector
Institutions affiliated with Houston's Texas Medical Center have opened or are planning hospitals in Montgomery County, per H-GAC regional economic data cited on the jobs-economy topic page -- a genuine, ongoing expansion of local healthcare capacity beyond the two flagship hospitals above, though a comprehensive list of specific new facilities was not independently compiled this research pass.
Beyond Local Scope: The Texas Medical Center Is Still an Option
For specialties beyond what Conroe's local hospitals offer, residents have the option of driving into Houston's Texas Medical Center -- one of the largest medical complexes in the world -- a trip of roughly 40 miles and 45 minutes to over an hour depending on traffic (see the traffic-transportation topic page). Conroe's own two hospital systems meaningfully reduce how often that longer drive is actually necessary, relative to a smaller satellite city with no local trauma or tertiary care presence.
Key takeaways
- HCA Houston Healthcare Conroe (332 beds) has served Montgomery County for 80+ years, with Level II Trauma, Level II NICU, and Comprehensive Stroke Center designations.
- CHI St. Luke's Health -- The Woodlands Hospital carries a Conroe, TX 77384 address, offers tertiary care across cardiovascular, neuroscience, oncology, orthopedics, and pediatric services, and was named a 2026-2027 U.S. News Best Regional Hospital.
- Texas Medical Center-affiliated institutions are actively expanding into Montgomery County, growing local healthcare capacity beyond the two flagship hospitals.
- For specialty care beyond local scope, Houston's Texas Medical Center is roughly 40 miles and 45 minutes to over an hour away depending on traffic -- a real but less frequently necessary trip given Conroe's own two substantial hospital systems.
