The 14,700-square-foot Surgery Center of the Merrimack Valley features four operating rooms, preoperative space and a post-anesthesia care unit. 

The ASC will initially offer orthopedic procedures, such as sports medicine, hand, foot, ankle, total joints and spine, and expects to add OB-GYN and plastic surgery procedures. 

The site is expected to serve as many as 15,000 patients in the region over the next four years.
