The new Wright State Physicians building<\/p><\/div>\n

Wright State Physicians (WSP), the region\u2019s largest multispecialty group, has opened its new building in the developing northeast corridor of Wright State\u2019s Dayton campus. It will be packed with plenty of new services that the Wright State Community can take advantage of.<\/p>\n

The 66,000-square-foot, three-story building will house physicians in the practices of Dermatology, Family Medicine, Geriatric Medicine, Orthopaedic Surgery, Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, and Women\u2019s Health.<\/p>\n

The new building will provide a convenient place for students, faculty, and staff of Wright State University, as well as residents of Clark, Montgomery, and Greene counties, to receive medical care. To better serve patients, it also will include Wright Health Pharmacy, CompuNet Clinical Laboratories, and an MRI facility operated by Miami Valley Hospital.<\/p>\n

The departments of Dermatology, Family Medicine, Geriatrics, and Orthopaedic Surgery are now seeing patients in the new building; the Women\u2019s Health Care practice is scheduled to begin operations in late summer; and Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation will open its doors for care to athletes and patients in late summer.<\/p>\n

In addition, a new extended-hours clinic, Wright Care, will see patients in the new building beginning Aug. 27. The clinic will be open noon\u20137 p.m., Monday\u2013Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cPhysicians began seeing patients in June, and we\u2019ve received very positive feedback about the new facility,\u201d said WSP Chief Operating Officer Jocelyn Piccone, M.H.A., M.A., CMPE. \u201cThe building opened ahead of schedule and is an improved, more efficient place for patients to get the high-quality care they\u2019re used to from our physicians.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new facility will also help further WSP\u2019s mission to retain outstanding medical faculty and staff in support of the clinical, research, and community service activities of the university’s medical school. The Boonshoft School of Medicine and Wright State Physicians are partners in providing training to medical students and delivering health care to the region. Additionally, the facility will offer a centrally located site for medical students to gain clinical expertise and for faculty to conduct translational research.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur doctors appreciate the efficiency of care, having staff in one place working together, and the modern facilities,\u201d said Margaret Dunn, M.D., M.B.A., professor of surgery, executive associate dean at the Boonshoft School of Medicine and president and CEO of Wright State Physicians. \u201cThe building was designed to suit the needs of each practice and fit their specific needs. We\u2019re proud to welcome our patients to our new offices.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
