"Plaza Medical Center of Fort Worth combines the best of what a smaller, private hospital and an academic center have to offer. We provide cutting-edge technology and are the preferred center for cardiac, neurosurgical, oncology, and orthopedic services in the Fort Worth area, as well as the preferred referral center for many outlying communities. In association with the University of North Texas, Plaza has its own traditional interns and internal medicine, surgical, and family medicine residents, all of whom rotate through the Emergency Department. Fellows in Cardiology and Rheumatology also work closely with the Department. This opportunity to teach is augmented by a closely knit medical and nursing staff which, combined with a very responsive administration, creates a personable environment reminiscent of a small, community hospital." Scott Jones, MD, FACEP Medical Director
