Adventist HealthCare Fort Washington Medical Center president Eunmee Shim said: “We worked tirelessly to make this much needed surgery centre a reality.
“For far too long, our community – from a healthcare standpoint – has been neglected and deprived, forcing residents to travel inconvenient distances for certain routine medical procedures and lifesaving surgeries.
“Opening this new building is a step toward correcting that behaviour and a move to better care for our neighbours.”
