News Release: 7/31/2025

We're excited to announce a significant expansion: University Health is making plans to purchase the 45-acre CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital – Medical Center campus, which closed in April. This acquisition includes the 4-story hospital, two medical/office buildings, a parking garage and a solar farm.

This strategic vision will transform the campus into an inpatient and ambulatory care center, greatly expanding access to advanced specialty medical, surgical and diagnostic services. It will also allow us to consolidate several leased clinics, creating a more coordinated and convenient patient experience while helping to decompress University Hospital.

We’re quickly expanding to keep up with the growing demand for our services, which includes two multi-specialty health centers opening this year and two community hospitals opening in 2027. Not only do these provide more health care access to our community, but enhance our mission and our ability to recruit top medical talent.
