Emergency Department The UMTB Emergency Department was dedicated in 1992, the $38 million, 90,000 square foot UTMB Emergency Room is one of the largest and most technologically sophisticated emergency care facility in the world.  With distinctive front parapets and cast stone accents, the structure's brick exterior is reminiscent of early Galveston styles, yet blends with existing campus architecture to offer an attractive, formal entrance to the hospital area from the north side of the campus.

Emergency treatment areas are located on the second level, the same level as UTMB's surgical suites.  The third level is occupied by the Southeast Texas Poison Control Center, Administrative offices, conference rooms and educational facilities.
