Oviedo, FL — In response to the growing healthcare demands of Oviedo and East Orlando, Oviedo Medical Center, an affiliate of HCA Florida Healthcare, recently opened two new state-of-the-art operating suites with an additional two operating suites scheduled to open in early 2025. The 14,000 square foot surgery recovery PACU with 14 bays will open mid-September. This $18 million expansion will serve as a vital resource for patients, offering an advanced surgical environment for a wide range of procedures, from routine to highly complex.

"The addition of these new operating suites and PACU is great news for our colleagues, surgeons, and most importantly, our patients," said Joseph Everette, Chief Nursing Officer at Oviedo Medical Center. "These additional suites will enable us to reduce wait times and enhance our capacity to serve the community more efficiently."

KC Donahey, Chief Executive Officer of Oviedo Medical Center, added, "The expansion of our operating rooms and PACU will have a significant positive impact on patient care. This is a tremendous step forward in fulfilling our commitment to the care and improvement of human life."

When the expansion is complete, Oviedo Medical Center will have a total of nine operating suites, designed to meet the increasing demand for surgical services in the community. These new suites will also improve workflow efficiency for surgeons, surgical staff, and patients.

"The additional space will create greater efficiencies for both surgeons and surgical staff, enhancing our ability to schedule surgeries and meet the healthcare needs of our community," said Dr. Chris Bryant, gynecologic oncology surgeon. "The leadership at Oviedo Medical Center is dedicated to supporting our community and medical professionals, and this expansion will significantly improve access to advanced surgical care."
