According to the report, the new surgery center is being created in response to an increase in the hospital’s surgical volumes, following an investment in new technologies and programs.

For example, the hospital recently acquired the latest generation of da Vinci Si HD robotic technology and launched the Chicago Back Institute, which specializes in minimally invasive spine procedures.

The physician offices will house orthopedics, pediatrics, neurology, thoracic, podiatry, pain management and urology specialists.
