Operating better

In addition to more than 250 expert surgeons on our medical staff, we also invest in the state-of-the-art facilities and technologies that support surgical excellence. Now, we are taking our surgical care to an even higher level of excellence, by working on an important construction project to enhance our surgery facilities.

Community philanthropy is helping make our new surgery center a reality. When construction is complete, the center will encompass seven new surgical suites — and eight existing surgical suites will also be upgraded as part of the project, ensuring all are future-ready. Advanced technologies, including latest-generation robotic surgery equipment, advanced monitoring systems and more, will be available here.

Of course, the enhanced surgery center will also include ample space for patient preparation and recovery, as well as comfortable waiting areas, well-equipped nursing stations, and related administrative space. Construction will be phased to ensure the continued availability of surgery services to meet regional need, throughout. Once complete, the center will allow us to serve the local population better than before.

We anticipate that work on the new surgical suites will be completed in July 2021. Upgrades to existing spaces are scheduled for completion by September 2022. We look forward to keeping you updated as this work progresses.
