CLS Health is expanding access to surgical and specialty care in Webster, Texas, by developing a new medical campus near Clear Lake. The project includes a 27,000-square-foot ambulatory surgery center and two medical office buildings designed to bring more healthcare services closer to patients throughout the Greater Houston area.
Construction began with a groundbreaking ceremony on September 3, 2026, near Kobayashi Road and Medical Center Boulevard, across from the existing CLS Health Comprehensive Care — Clear Lake campus. The first phase is expected to continue through December 2027.
Bringing Surgical and Specialty Care Closer to Webster and Clear Lake
As Webster and surrounding Clear Lake communities continue to grow, convenient access to surgical procedures and specialty physicians is increasingly important.
CLS Health is investing in a new medical campus to expand local healthcare options, allowing more patients to receive care closer to home without traveling into central Houston for certain procedures.
The development will include:
- A 27,000-square-foot ambulatory surgery center (ASC)
- Two new medical office buildings for primary and specialty care
- Additional clinical space to support future healthcare services
- New opportunities for physicians and healthcare professionals
The project builds on CLS Health's physician-owned, provider-led model, emphasizing coordinated care and easier access to medical services throughout the region.
New Webster Ambulatory Surgery Center Will Expand Surgical Services
The centerpiece of the development is a new ambulatory surgery center designed to support a broad range of outpatient procedures.
An ambulatory surgery center (ASC) is a healthcare facility where patients can undergo eligible surgical procedures without requiring an overnight hospital stay.
The planned Webster facility will feature:
- Four operating rooms for surgical procedures
- Two cardiac catheterization (cath) lab rooms for specialized cardiovascular procedures
- Two procedure rooms for additional outpatient services
The center is expected to support procedures across multiple specialties, including:
- Cardiology
- Vascular Surgery
- Ophthalmology
- Orthopedics
- Gastroenterology
- Podiatry
- Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT)
- Dermatology
- Pain Management
By bringing multiple procedural specialties together in one location, CLS Health aims to improve access to outpatient surgery and create a more connected care experience for patients.
Specific procedures and scheduling availability will be announced as the facility approaches opening.
Expanding Primary and Specialty Care with Two New Medical Office Buildings
In addition to the surgery center, the first phase of development includes two medical office buildings that will provide additional space for primary care physicians and specialists.
These buildings will complement CLS Health's existing Clear Lake campus, where patients already have access to a wide range of healthcare services.
The expansion is designed to support more coordinated care by strengthening connections between primary care, specialty consultations, diagnostic services, and surgical treatment.
For patients, this approach can make it easier to navigate appointments, coordinate treatment plans, and receive follow-up care within the same physician-led healthcare organization.
Investing More Than $33 Million in Webster Healthcare Infrastructure
The new surgical campus represents a major investment in healthcare infrastructure for Webster and surrounding communities.
- Construction costs for the surgery center's building shell and interior are expected to exceed $25 million, with an additional $8 million planned for medical equipment.
- Beyond expanding healthcare services, the project will also support local economic activity through construction and future healthcare employment opportunities.
- More than 40 skilled construction trades are expected to contribute to the development, including site preparation, utilities, building construction, and interior finishing.
"As Chief Infrastructure Officer, it is very rewarding to see a vision move from a plan on paper to something real, something that will serve our physicians, our teams and, most importantly, our patients," said Ammar Baba, Chief Infrastructure Officer of CLS Health.
"This surgical center represents our continued investment in the communities we serve, and I am very proud to be building the next chapter of CLS Health."

The Webster surgical campus is part of CLS Health's continued efforts to expand coordinated, physician-led healthcare throughout Greater Houston.
With more than 45 locations and over 300 providers, CLS Health continues to invest in facilities and services that meet the evolving needs of patients and communities.

As development progresses, CLS Health will share additional information about the campus, available specialties, and future patient services.
