In this episode of Taking Care of Business with the Grand Prairie Chamber of Commerce, CEO Brian Bondy and Membership Director Kevin Locks sit down with Dr. Ken Rothfield, Chief Medical Officer at Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital, and Vicki Popplewell, a longtime leader in the hospital supporting the hospital’s president.
They share how the Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital’s unique culture of collaboration and respect has made it one of the best places to work in healthcare. From stroke care and trauma services to women’s health renovations and cutting-edge cancer detection with robotics and AI, Arlington Memorial continues to grow while staying true to its community roots.
The conversation also covers:
The hospital’s promise of “individuals caring for individuals together.”
Their nationally recognized approach to stroke treatment and new thrombectomy capability.
Renovations that are transforming labor & delivery and NICU spaces into spa-like, family-centered care environments.
Advanced cancer care that now uses robotics and AI to detect and treat lung nodules at the earliest stages.
How they recruit and retain top medical talent in a competitive DFW market.
The hospital’s commitment to preventative care, community partnerships with schools, and support for families in need.
It’s a fascinating look at how a local hospital is innovating while never losing sight of the people it serves.
