United Regional receives national award from American College of Cardiology
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — United Regional Health Care System officials have some big news to share as they announce and celebrate a significant accomplishment. During a reception today, United Regional CEO Cory Edmondson announced that the hospital has earned the HEARTcare Center National Distinction of Excellence from the American College of Cardiology. Edmondson said they got this award through the outstanding excellence they provide day in and day out in several departments, including cardiology. Edmondson said staff members there must be board-certified while also providing consistent care for the patients who walk through the doors. 'This would not be possible without our dedicated doctors and staff, especially our cath lab. They're performing at a top-notch and excellent level, especially in the area of technology that we provide. We wouldn't be able to do this if we didn't have the latest and greatest technology, and do the latest and greatest procedures, but our highly trained staff can make that happen,' Edmondson said. Edmondson said that only a few healthcare systems in the nation have ever received this national recognition, and, of course, we here at KFDX want to congratulate the staff at United Regional.

Meet United Regional's new CEO: Healthy You
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — As local healthcare continues evolving, so does United Regional's leadership. Cory Edmondson, the new CEO of United Regional, spoke about his plans to increase the hospital's growth in Wichita Falls. And his process of getting started. 'We've got five-, ten- and fifteen-year plans, at the organization, for growth from facility structure to recruiting physicians, creating more access for patient care,' Edmondson said. The Amarillo-born and raised resident also said, 'I want to make sure people understand where they get their value is not in their title, but it's how they do their work. It's with excellence, with integrity, teamwork and trust.' Edmondson also mentioned having strong personal goals since joining Wichita Falls. He hopes to ride in the Hotter n' Hell Hundred in true Wichita Falls style. 'I'm not going to do the 400. Not initially. I'm not even in the shape to be able to do that, but I would. I will do something absolutely,' Edmondson said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
