BELFAST — WCGH Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Practice, located on the main floor of the hospital’s Ludwig Building, will begin seeing patients in an expanded office Monday, Nov. 14. The new office is located just down the hall from the previous space.

This move signifies the completion of phase one of a two part construction project that will more than double the size of the practice. When the second phase wraps up in early 2023, Orthopedics and Sports Medicine will house eight new exam rooms, new offices, an ADA-approved bathroom, dual entrances and a larger waiting room, as well as hallway access for the procedure room. These upgrades will improve access to the practice, according to WCGH, in a news release.
