Batavia, NY - September 27, 2023- Rochester Regional Health (RRH) will open its new 95,000 sq. ft. Batavia Medical Campus building Monday, bringing more than a dozen specialty services all under one roof. The bright, modern building clearly visible off the I-90 New York State Thruway, includes Primary Care, Pediatrics, Orthopaedics, Otolaryngology, Plastic Surgery, Vascular Surgery, Neurosciences, Sands-Constellation Heart Institute cardiologists, Lab, Imaging and an Urgent Care.
The Batavia Medical Campus is a nearly $45 million investment, and the latest example of RRH’s commitment to rural health, making it easy and convenient for patients to access the care they want, where they want it- close to home.
“Rochester Regional is transforming rural health. From St. Lawrence County in the North Country to Ontario and Wayne counties to the East, our goal is to ensure equity in access to care through a comprehensive range of wellness, primary care, and specialty services conveniently close to home for our patients and their families,” said RRH CEO Richard “Chip” Davis, PhD.
The Batavia Medical Campus is strategically located between Rochester and Buffalo by design, both for the patients who need easy access to these comprehensive services, and the specialists who may come from anywhere in the region to the building. It is an extension of the work already being done just down the way at United Memorial Medical Center (UMMC), RRH’s 133-bed hospital providing high-quality acute care to more than 60,000 area residents. It is one of only 612 Magnet-designated hospitals in the world.
“We are neighbors helping neighbors, with programs that are continually recognized nationally for their exceptional work in nursing, stroke, joint, wound and senior care to name a few. Rochester Regional Health continues to expand access to all those programs here in Batavia, by bringing more providers on board through enhanced partnerships like the one with the Sands-Constellation Heart Institute or through state-of-the-art facilities like the Batavia Medical Campus,” said Dan Ireland, RRH President and COO of Finger Lakes Rural Hospitals.
The Batavia Medical Campus will begin to move providers and staff in this week, and plans to open its doors to patients Oct. 2nd.
