Many of the more than 2,000 professional and amateur artists who live in and around Houston are treated at Houston Methodist every year, and our services are also available to the dozens of guest artists performing in Houston each season.

 

The only center of its kind in the country, the Houston Methodist Center for Performing Arts Medicine encompasses a specialized group of more than 100 physicians working collaboratively to address the specific demands placed on artists. Our talented doctors care for the elite artists of the Houston Symphony, Houston Ballet and Houston Grand Opera and other performing artists from around the globe, while providing the same outstanding care to all of the patients they serve.
