MAYWOOD, IL – This afternoon, the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board approved Loyola Medicine's proposal to build a new advanced ambulatory care center in Tinley Park. Loyola Medicine President and CEO Shawn P. Vincent celebrated the decision, saying, "We look forward to expanding our reach to patients in the southwest suburbs. With this new development, we hope to further our mission of being a compassionate and transforming healing presence within our communities by providing local residents exceptional academic medical care conveniently located in their neighborhoods."

The Loyola Medicine Southwest Ambulatory Care Center, located at the southeast corner of 179th Street and LaGrange Road, will serve more than 15,000 patients. Staffed by approximately 50 physicians, the facility will offer a range of medical specialties including oncology, cardiology, digestive health, endocrinology, gynecology and urogynecology, hepatology, neurology, orthopaedics, otolaryngology and audiology, pediatrics, physical medicine and rehabilitation, primary care, pulmonology, radiology and sports medicine.

Trinity Health has committed $69 million for the development. The new facility will include a comprehensive cancer care center, an immediate care center, an imaging center, a retail pharmacy, fifty exam rooms, eight procedure rooms, an X-ray suite and a laboratory to support multiple disciplines.

Village of Tinley Park Mayor Michael Glotz welcomed the project which will bring as many as 130 new jobs to the community. "We couldn’t be more excited that Loyola Medicine has chosen Tinley Park for its brand-new ambulatory care center. Not only is it an honor to have such a respected and esteemed medical establishment in town, but it will also be great to have access to that kind of quality care right here in our backyard."

Construction on the 70,000-square-foot, two-story building will begin shortly after the ceremonial groundbreaking event on December 15 at 10 am CT. The facility is scheduled to open in August 2023.
