New Buildings & Services Make U-M East Medical Campus a Hub of Health System Activity
Best laid plans take shape, provide convenience, more facilities, care
Since 1992, University planners have envisioned a convenient, off-site ambulatory care center to accommodate an ever-expanding need for outpatient programs and services. With 200 acres of land on the southeast corner of Earhart and Plymouth roads, they decided to turn vision into reality and, over time, the University of Michigan East Medical Campus has evolved.
The East Ann Arbor Health Center was completed in 1998, offering patients a selection of primary care, specialty and radiological services, an outpatient retail pharmacy, laboratory services, the Health Education Resource Center and more.
In recent years, the need for more facilities has grown and the Health System has responded. In mid-April, the Ambulatory Surgery and Medical Procedures Center opened for business. Family Medicine moved to Domino’s Farms from its first-floor clinic suite in the East Ann Arbor Health Center, making way for the incoming Geriatrics Center. This move prompted the building’s official name-change to the East Ann Arbor Health and Geriatrics Center. The Rachel Upjohn Building, where the U-M Depression Center and all ambulatory psychiatric and substance abuse services will be housed, will be complete in October.
