Advancing surgical care.
Thanks to the support of generous community philanthropists like Erica and Bruce Alberts, we recently completed an ambitious project to expand our surgery center by adding new and upgraded surgical spaces on our campus. Donors like the Alberts helped transform our surgical suites into state-of-the-art facilities, and we are most grateful.
All suites have been fully equipped with advanced technology — including the latest-generation robotic surgery equipment — to provide leading-edge treatment across various specialties. All surgical spaces were built above our Nan and Howard Schow Emergency & Trauma Center and are easily accessed via a single elevator ride. This ensures trauma patients and people with life-threatening conditions can be rapidly transferred to their awaiting surgical team — helping to expedite care and save lives.
The new center is already having a meaningful impact on the lives of patients in need of life-changing surgical care. In 2023, we performed 10,720 surgeries in these rooms — increasing our case volume by nearly 300.
