Brockport, N.Y. – UR Medicine held a ribbon cutting Friday at the newly renovated Brockport Campus of Strong West.

The facility now features a new entrance, lobby and a same-day surgical center.

Hospital administrators said since Lakeside Memorial closed last spring, they have been working to bring 24 hour care back to the area.

“A lot of work as gone into that, preparing that, getting that ready to provide the services that the community needs locally. Providing the subspecialty services without having to go outside of the community,” said Dr. Michael Kamali, chair of the emergency medicine department.

An off-campus emergency department is also in the final stages of approval.
