UC Davis Health last week held a ceremonial groundbreaking for a major new ambulatory surgery center. Known as the 48X Complex due to its location at 48th and X streets, the center will blend advanced medical technologies with a human-centered approach to patient care.
The complex will be 267,000 square feet and will include 14 operating rooms, 59 pre-and post-operative recovery bays and 14 single-occupant overnight recovery rooms. The center will also include clinical support, pharmacy, imaging and physical therapy services and administrative support space.
