Need a Doctor? Just Head to 77030!

Since I'm in the Healthcare Real Estate business at Transwestern (http://www.transwestern.net), I thought this was of big interest. I hope you do too... I knew that the Texas Medical Center was a massive concentration of docs but this just confirms that it's tops!

This from the Houston Business Journal: (http://houston.bizjournals.com/houston/)

A zip code in the Texas Medical Center is home to the highest concentration of physicians in the nation, according to a report by research firm SK&A. The 77030 zip code -- which ranked first in the Top 50 Zip Codes with Most Physicians report -- is home to 2,170 physicians at 385 medical offices.The region includes a cluster of healthcare sites in close proximity, such as the Texas Medical Center, The University of Texas Health Science Center, St. Luke’s Episcopal Health System, Memorial Hermann Healthcare System, The Methodist Hospital System and Shriners Hospital for Children.

Irvine, Calif.-based SK&A is part of the France-based Cegedim S.A. Group, a global technology company specializing in the healthcare field. SK & A researches and maintains contact and profiling information for over two million healthcare practitioners, including 800,000-plus prescribers.
