The facility will provide space for up to 10 tenants, including an ASC, an imaging center and a plastic surgery center. 

The planning board required the project’s developers to correctly manage traffic patterns. 

A local surgeon, Alexander Slocum, MD, is proposing to construct the new medical facility, according to the report. The space will accommodate an estimated 20 professionals. 

Dr. Slocum told the Herald that a new ASC was needed for the community, as “our current outpatient surgery center at Griffin Park was constructed in the late 1990s, and the majority of the building now resides in a wetlands buffer.” 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
