MemorialCare Saddleback Medical Center, a nonprofit medical center in Orange County, broke ground on its Women’s Health Pavilion. The new state-of-the-art three-story, 40,000-square-foot facility, which is scheduled to open in 2023 in Laguna Hills, aims to elevate the future of women’s healthcare and focus on women’s needs through all stages of their lives.
The Breast Center will officially be named Sarah & Taylor Nederlander Breast Center as a result of a $2.5 million gift from sisters Taylor and Sarah Nederlander of the Harry J. Nederlander Foundation. The new Breast Center will allow MemorialCare to nearly double the number of patients served each year.
The Women’s Health Pavilion will also offer personalized care in oncology, women’s health, sexual health, obstetrics, and mental health. The Women’s Health Pavilion will feature offerings not available in any other Orange County medical center, according to the press release, such as the first integrated breast cancer clinic, featuring a breast oncologist, breast surgeon and breast reconstruction surgeon under one roof, along with the only on-site transition retail shop for patients going through cancer treatment.
As planned, the Women’s Health Pavilion will be home to the first-of-its-kind, freestanding pelvic floor rehab clinic. In addition, space for maternity tied to Saddleback Medical Center’s Women’s Hospital hospitalists and perinatologists will be featured in the Women’s Health Pavilion. Plans for the Women’s Health Pavilion also include a Community Education Center that will expand health and wellness educational offerings. Read more.
