Eastpark Medical Center Will Welcome Patients in Late October
Construction work is on schedule at UW Health Eastpark Medical Center, with a plan to begin seeing patients on October 28.
Thanks to a philanthropic investment of $20 million, the new facility will improve access to care and provide a consistent, well-coordinated patient experience in a technologically advanced facility.
More than two dozen specialties will open their doors to patients in three phases, with most areas operational by mid-November.
Eastpark Medical Center is across from East Madison Hospital on the east side of Madison. It will be a 470,000-square-foot, seven-story facility housing a variety of outpatient care programs including oncology and integrated specialty care for women. Proton Therapy to treat cancer is expected to begin in 2026.
In the new medical center, patients will be able to see multiple providers during a single visit rather than making multiple return visits for individual appointments, according to Dr. Peter Newcomer, chief operating officer, UW Health.
“The coordinated care at Eastpark will provide patients with the best care in Wisconsin in the easiest way possible,” Newcomer said. “Whether it is managing a pre-existing heart condition while undergoing cancer treatment or understanding the potential impact of a unique genetic mutation, there will be a team dedicated to the care and treatment of every patient having experts together under one roof.”
