TINLEY PARK, Ill. (WBBM NEWSRADIO) -- Loyola Medicine has opened a new outpatient treatment center in Tinley Park.

The new 70,000 square-foot, two-story facility is opening in phases.

This past weekend was the official opening. Trinity Health, Loyola's parent company, said it invested $69 million.

Loyola Medicine said its Tinley Park facility at 179th Street and LaGrange Road will include 18 specialties - and the complex will have imaging services, a retail pharmacy, fifty exam rooms, eight procedure rooms, an X-ray suite and laboratory.

The new cancer care center will provide access to radiation therapy, a Varian linear accelerator and chemotherapy infusion.

"It is, without question, going to be an amazing health care resource for the residents of this growing community," said Mike Slubowski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Trinity Health.

"The building design allows for maximum flexibility with clinical programs as more become available and as service demands increase."

Loyola Medicine is a paid sponsor of WBBM Newsradio.
