The health care system will build the 8,000-square-foot medical building at 235 Hauenstein Road, with plans to open by late summer 2024. It is Lutheran’s first foray into Huntington.
“This new site will increase access to quality healthcare services for Huntington and the surrounding area,” said Nicole Rexroth, CEO of Lutheran Health Physicians, in a news release. “A large number of residents from this area travel to other Lutheran Health Physician locations for care. This new site will allow them to have access to our medical services close to where they live and work.”
The center will provide primary care and imaging services as well as featuring rotating medical specialists. A specific number of jobs planned for the facility was not provided.
“I am glad to help welcome the Lutheran Health Network to the Huntington community, and I look forward to what Lutheran’s staff and the resources they are making available will contribute toward the health and well-being of our friends and neighbors in Huntington,” Mayor Richard Strick said.
Fort Wayne-based MKM architecture + design is the design architect and FCI Construction in Auburn is the general contractor.
