Welcoming Virginia Mason’s Newest Medical Center to the Heart of Bellevue
Building on Bellevue’s reputation for top-notch medical care, Virginia Mason opened its newest center at Wilburton Village today, expanding options for state-of-the-art healthcare in the Heart of Bellevue. Whether you’re searching for a new doctor or looking for specialty care, this 45,000 square foot facility offers an expanse of services and plentiful parking – all in a convenient urban location.
While this new facility is a recent arrival, the 100 year old nonprofit healthcare system has been serving the Bellevue community for many years at their previous location on 112th Street. Expanding in Bellevue’s Downtown core gave Virginia Mason the opportunity to grow their commitment to community-minded care while the city grew as well.
The new facility is twice the size of their previous location and offers comprehensive care under one roof. Medical services include award-wining primary care alongside specialty providers including dermatology, pediatrics, and gynecology. The new facility’s surgery center also offers close and convenient outpatient services – from orthopedic procedures to vascular surgeries.
Virginia Mason’s plans for the new medical center began in 2018, with extensive input from providers, patients and community members being used in the process - ensuring a collaborative, comfortable design.
“This new facility reflects our organization’s commitment to excellence and creating remarkable patient experiences,” said Dr. Gary Kaplan, Virginia Mason Chairman and CEO. “Because of their leadership and dedication - even through challenging times - we continue to grow and thrive so we can best serve you, our patients.”
Virginia Mason originally planned a grand opening celebration to ring in the new center, but COVID-19 put those plans to a halt. Instead, their team created a virtual tour for the community, allowing anyone to take a peak inside the brand new facility:
From yearly check-ups to care when you need it most, we’re happy to welcome this expanded addition to the Heart of Bellevue.
