General Surgery Experience Patient-Centered Care
Fairfield Healthcare Professionals currently has two general surgery offices: One in the Fairmore building and one at River View. In an ongoing effort to combine these practices, the Fairmore clinic recently relocated to the Medical Office Pavilion, where they began seeing patients in suite 305 on Tuesday, Aug. 6.
In phase two of the transition, the clinic at River View will move to this shared space on August 26. Once combined, the newly renovated FHP General Surgery office (Medical Office Pavilion, 135 N. Ewing St., Suite 305) will be home to two physician assistants, six general surgeons and poised to welcome two physician recruits in late summer and early fall.
