Thanks to nearly $115 million in investments, Williamsport-based UPMC Susquehanna will build a new center of excellence for physician medicine and rehabilitation and revamp its cancer center, the system said Oct. 16.
The new center for excellence at UPMC Susquehanna Williamsport will add four stories to the hospital's tower, replacing a current medical office building. The $100 million building will house operating rooms, medical and surgical suites, and critical care units, with the intention of offering full trauma services by 2020.
The remaining $13 million will transform UPMC Susquehanna's cancer center into the UPMC Hillman Cancer Center. Additions will include exam rooms, open chemotherapy bays, private chemotherapy rooms and office space.
