Upgrades to the 25-year-old facility include:
• Demolishing part of the original center and building a two-story addition that opened Jan. 19, housing physical therapy, respiratory therapy, lab, medical imaging and urgent care. Those services had been housed in a portion of the original 1984 building that soon will be demolished.
• Thorough renovation of a one-story 1997 addition at the center’s south end. Changes include new furnishings and a new pharmacy space.
Part-time mobile MRI and CT scanners were replaced with permanent units. Other equipment upgrades include a 16-slice CT and a new MRI. On top of the $7.5 million investment, the building houses more than $2 million in imaging equipment, including X-ray, a Dexa bone-density scanner and ultrasound equipment. A new digital mammography unit is being installed this month.
The renovation began in early 2008, and ground was broken for the two-story addition in 2009.
In a prepared release, Grandview President Richard Haas noted the larger, renovated facility now has more services and specialty physicians than in the past.
Specialty physicians at the center practice in areas such as family practice, internal medicine, pulmonary medicine, urology, OB/GYN, orthopedics, ENT, general surgery, podiatry and proctology.
The center also houses occupational medicine provided by Kettering Workers Care. Limited time share opportunities still exist for the addition of more doctors.
