Lourdes to open ambulatory-care facility

Lourdes Health System said it would open an ambulatory care center in a vacant building at the corner of Route 70 and Brace Road in Cherry Hill.

The $13 million center, to be developed by Rosewood Real Estate Enterprises of Cherry Hill, is expected to open early next year, Lourdes said.

Lourdes has a 15-year lease and is expected to spend at least $4 million for equipment and furnishings, spokeswoman Lauren Markin said.

The 54,000-square-foot center will be the primary office for Lourdes Cardiology Services and will have physician offices for orthopedics, sports medicine, rheumatology and podiatry.
