Officials from the hospital and McKinney gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony held Sept. 4. The medical office building, which expands the hospitals overall capacity, stands five stories tall with 124,500 square feet of space that will house high-level medical specialists and services, including cardiology, orthopedics and rehabilitation.
What they’re saying
Medical City McKinney CEO Mark Deno said the new building was a culmination of years of planning. He thanked City Council member Ernest Lynch, formerly the CEO of Medical City McKinney, for his vision to make the hospital a destination of choice for complex care.
“I think of this building as a symbol of our commitment to really want you to have the best complex care that we can offer,” Medical City McKinney CEO Mark Deno said. “For our neighbors in the community that are here now and the thousands that are planning to move in over the next couple of years.”
McKinney Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Lisa Hermes said it was an exciting day to see the hospital expanding. Health care is one of the most important and vital components in a community, she said. In addition to providing health care services, Medical City McKinney is involved with the community by partnering with its organizations and nonprofits, she said.
“That is really the spirit of McKinney and I think that's very evident today,” Hermes said.
