Bristol Health debuts its new 62,000-square-foot ambulatory care center at the corner of Main Street and Riverside Avenue.
“It was our board of directors who, in 2015, felt that since access to care was a priority identified in our community health needs assessment, that we should pursue this project,” said Bristol Health President and CEO Kurt A. Barwis, FACHE. “Even back then, we knew that this would be a win-win for numerous stakeholders including Bristol Health, the city and our patients and families.”
The MCC will be occupied by Bristol Health’s Multi-Specialty Group, providing the community with a range of crucial services, including cardiology, endocrinology and diabetes, neurology, orthopedics, rheumatology and urology.
Rendina Healthcare Real Estate, a leading national developer, partnered with the hospital as the developer of the $26 million MCC, and will own and manage the facility going forward.
“The opening of the Bristol Ambulatory Care Center is cause for celebration on many fronts,” said Steve Barry, President of Rendina. “The new Medical Care Center will help Bristol Health build on their outstanding reputation as a leader in providing the very best care, and its location will serve the community well by providing accessibility and convenience.”
