History and Principal Documents
Houston Methodist 2015-2016 Corporate Reference Manual | 1
The Methodist Hospital was chartered in 1919 after prominent Houston surgeon Dr. Oscar Norsworthy sold his 30-bed private hospital to the Methodist Episcopal Church. The church raised funds to expand and equip the facility on San Jacinto and Rosalie Streets in downtown Houston. In 1924, The Methodist Hospital opened as a general acute care hospital facility with 90 beds and 10 bassinets.
The hospital struggled to remain open during the Great Depression, but administrator Josie Roberts cut expenses and managed resources to keep it from closing. In later years her efforts managed to grow the hospital and allow her to recruit talented physicians. She signed the gifted neurosurgeon, Dr. James Greenwood, whose techniques and tools would lay the groundwork for modern neurosurgery. She also recruited Dr. Michael DeBakey, whose skill as an innovative cardiovascular surgeon would eventually attract patients from around the globe.In 1951, the hospital opened a new, 310-bed facility on seven acres of donated land south of downtown Houston. This was one of the first hospital facilities to be located in the Texas Medical Center.
An agreement in 1950 affiliated The Methodist Hospital with Baylor College of Medicine. The two organizations shared common goals and together, the hospital and the medical school would become leaders in medical research and in the training of physicians and other health care professionals.
In 1983, Houston Methodist affiliated with San Jacinto Hospital, which had served the Baytown community since 1948. This hospital would become part of the Houston Methodist system in 1997.
Since the 1990s, Houston Methodist has steadily expanded its reach into all corners of the Houston area. Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital, opened in 1998, serves patients in Fort Bend County; Houston Methodist Willowbrook Hospital opened in 2000 to serve the communities in northwest Harris County; and Houston Methodist West Hospital opened its doors in 2010 to residents of the Katy-west Houston area. The Houston Methodist Willowbrook, Sugar Land and West hospitals are operating divisions of Methodist Health Centers, a Texas non-profit corporation. Houston Methodist is building another hospital in The Woodlands, which is scheduled to
open in 2017. In 2014, Houston Methodist joined with CHRISTUS Health to establish a new partnership between the two faith-based health systems. Under the terms of the agreement, Houston Methodist acquired a majority ownership in CHRISTUS St. John Hospital, an acute care hospital in Clear Lake and full ownership of CHRISTUS St. Catherine Hospital in west Houston, which was repurposed as a long-term acute care hospital. The two facilities were re-named Houston Methodist St. John Hospital and Houston Methodist St. Catherine Hospital. In 2016, Houston Methodist purchased the remaining interest in St. John Hospital form CHRISTUS, giving Houston Methodist 100% ownership in the facility.
From 1997 until 2002, Houston Methodist and its affiliates were controlled directly or indirectly by the Methodist Health Care System, a Texas non-profit corporation. In 2002, the system was merged into The Methodist Hospital pursuant to a statutory merger in order to streamline operations and achieve efficiencies. Houston Methodist assumed all of the rights and obligations of the system. The Board of Directors of the system became the Board of Directors of Houston Methodist. The system changed its name to Houston Methodist in 2013, and the community hospitals each adopted the Houston Methodist name.
Houston Methodist and Baylor College of Medicine dissolved its affiliation in 2004. Houston Methodist then affiliated with Weill Cornell Medical College (now Weill Cornell Medicine) to be its primary academic partner, and with New York-Presbyterian Hospital. The two New York-based institutions share best practices and collaborate on research, education and clinical care with Houston Methodist.
In 2016, Houston Methodist and Texas A&M Health Science Center announced a major partnership to collaborate on innovative research and medical education. Students pursuing an MD/PhD degree have the opportunity to enroll in medical and graduate science classes at Texas A&M Institute for Biosciences and Technology in Houston and complete three to four years of doctoral thesis work with a faculty mentor at the Houston Methodist Research Institute. Houston Methodist also partners with Baylor College of Medicine, the University of Houston and University of Texas Health on various projects.

The Conference has encouraged and inspired institutions of healing in a spiritual environment as a physical expression of this ministry in order to accomplish its mission of equipping vibrant, growing congregations for the transformation of the world. The health care mission of The Methodist Hospital participates in this ministry and mission by providing high quality health care in a spiritual environment, by providing educational opportunities for health care personnel, and by supporting ethical research to advance knowledge in the field of health care. In so doing, The Methodist Hospital, with its ICARE values of Integrity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect and Excellence, reflects the Conference key drivers and core beliefs of fruitfulness, excellence, accountability, radical hospitality, risk-taking mission, extravagant generosity, and connectional ministry.

In Memoriam
NAT ROGERS1919 - 2016
Mr. Nat S. Rogers dedicated 25 years to serving Houston Methodist, its physicians and its patients as a Director of the Houston Methodist Board, and in 1996 was elected a Life Member of this Board.
Mr. Rogers served on a number of Board committees during his years of service to Houston Methodist, including the Employee Pension and Trust Committee, Executive Committee, Investment Committee, and Real Estate Committee.
Mr. Rogers was one of what is now often referred to as the Greatest Generation, serving his country as a Lieutenant in the U. S. Navy in the Pacific and Asiatic theatres for four years during World War II.
Mr. Rogers was a banker for many decades and retired as Chairman of First City National Bank of Houston. His business acumen and leadership were critical to Houston Methodist’s growth and reputation.
Mr. Rogers was an active member of St. Luke’s United Methodist Church in Houston and was a Trustee for Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi and Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas, and served as a director on several corporate boards. After his retirement, he returned to his native State of Mississippi where he became Executive in Residence at Millsaps College before he fully retired.

DAVID M. UNDERWOOD1937 - 2015
Mr. David M. Underwood passed away on August 30, 2015, after serving with distinction on the Houston Methodist Board of Directors since 1963, an unprecedented record of 52 years of dedicated service.
Mr. Underwood’s grandfather, Walter W. Fondren, was a founding trustee of Houston Methodist. Mr. Fondren was succeeded on the Board by Mr. Underwood’s grandmother, Ella F. Fondren, whose bold vision for over 40 years led Houston Methodist to a future it would not have had without her leadership. Mr. Underwood built upon Mrs. Fondren’s legacy through his own trusteeship at Houston Methodist by unselfishly giving of his time, expertise, and philanthropy.
Mr. Underwood received a BA degree from Yale and later graduated from the Institute of Investment Banking at the Wharton School of Finance. He began his career in finance at Underwood Neuhaus & Co., Inc. and continued his profession at its successor organizations, finally serving as Managing Director of Wells Fargo Advisors. He also was President and Director of his family’s business, Feliciana Corporation.
Mr. Underwood was active in the securities industries and served as Member and Chairman of the National Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”), District 6 Business Conduct Committee; Vice Chairman and Governor of NASD’s Board of Governors; Chairman of the NASD Qualifications Committee; and Director of Market Services, Inc., an NASD subsidiary. He also served the Securities Industry Association as a member of the National Economic Education Committee; Trustee of the Foundation for Economic Education; and Director and President of the Texas Stock and Bond Dealers Association.
Mr. Underwood used his knowledge of financial affairs and business acumen to lead the Houston Methodist Finance Committee for eighteen years, and helped to create one of the world’s most financially secure and well-recognized academic medical centers. He used his talent, resources, and influence as Chairman of Houston Methodist’s $200 million fundraising campaign, which made great strides for the institution; and he also served on the Board of the Houston Methodist Hospital Foundation and on the Alzheimer’s Committee of the Neurological Institute National Council. Mr. Underwood devoted countless hours serving on numerous other Houston Methodist boards and committees.
Mr. Underwood’s community involvement was extensive. He served the Fondren Foundation on its Board of Governors, The Kinkaid School as a Life Trustee, The Kinkaid Endowment Fund, Inc. as Chairman, and Phillips Academy Andover as a Charter Trustee and President of its Board. He was honored on numerous occasions, receiving the following awards: an honorary Doctor of Letters from the University of St. Thomas; the Joseph Jaworski Leadership Award, the Alice Graham Baker Crusader Award from Neighborhood Centers, Inc.; the Fuess Award for Community Service from
Houston Methodist 2015-2016 Corporate Reference Manual | 59
Phillips Academy Andover; and the Maurice Hirsch Award for Philanthropy from the Houston Chapter of the Society of Fund Raising Professionals. The Texas Medical Center dedicated the David M. Underwood Boulevard in his honor.
In 2013, Mr. Underwood was honored by the Houston Methodist Board of Directors when as a tribute to his remarkable 50 years of continuous service as a Director of Houston Methodist, the Board of Directors named the Houston Methodist Board of Directors’ Meeting Room in his honor.
Mr. Underwood devoted years of service to promote and enhance the quality of healthcare provided in the Texas Medical Center, providing great vision not just to Houston Methodist but also to the Texas Medical Center as Chairman of its Board of Directors for 23 years. Mr. Underwood and his extended family personally and through the Fondren Foundation generously supported Houston Methodist with their philanthropy, including major gifts to establish the Fondren Tower; Sue Trammell Pavilion; the Fondren Distinguished Endowed Chair at the Houston Methodist Research Institute; the Walter W. Fondren III Distinguished Endowed Chair at the Methodist DeBakey Heart and Vascular Center; and most recently, the Lynda K. and David M. Underwood Center for Digestive Disorders at Houston Methodist Hospital.
Mr. Underwood served his country in the U.S. Army Reserve, where he attained the rank of Captain, Armor USAR and was awarded the Army Commendation Medal for his distinctive service at Fort Polk, Louisiana during the Berlin Crisis. He was a man of deep faith who was profoundly committed to the spiritual mission of Houston Methodist. Mr. Underwood was a loving husband to Lynda, father to his children, David Jr., Catherine, and Duncan, and a devoted friend, and he will be sorely missed and remembered by Houston Methodist.
