SEATTLE — Elliott Bay Capital Trust (“Elliott Bay”), a real estate investment company focused on essential healthcare properties, in partnership with Pantheon, a leading global private markets investor, has announced the acquisition of a 13,602-square-foot ambulatory surgery center in Athens, Ohio. The facility is 100% net leased to Marietta Memorial Hospital, a wholly owned subsidiary of Memorial Health System, a leading not-for-profit integrated health system serving the Mid-Ohio Valley.
The property, originally constructed in 2015 as a build-to-suit surgery center, features two operating rooms, exam rooms, a physical therapy suite, and imaging capabilities. Memorial Health System recently acquired the practice and executed a new long-term lease, expanding surgical offerings. The facility sits adjacent to OhioHealth O’Bleness Hospital and proximate to Memorial’s new Athens Medical Campus and emergency department opened in 2025.
“This acquisition represents a strong addition to our portfolio of mission-critical healthcare assets,” said Christian Whipple, CEO of Elliott Bay. “Memorial’s long-term commitment to the Athens market and continued investment in regional infrastructure further reinforce the strategic value of this facility as a key surgical access point for the surrounding community.” Athens, home to Ohio University and the seat of Athens County, anchors a growing healthcare corridor in Appalachian Ohio. The city benefits from a stable economic base driven by education, healthcare, and government services, with regional demand for outpatient services further supported by Memorial Health System’s expansion.
