The East Alabama Ambulatory Surgery Center (EAASC) – part of the Auburn Medical Pavilion in the Auburn Research Park – began welcoming patients yesterday. With 24,000 square feet, this center offers patients a safe, comfortable and convenient alternative to visiting the hospital for certain outpatient procedures.
The state-of-the-art facility is positioned near Auburn’s campus on Camp Auburn Road, near the intersection of Shug Jordan Parkway and South College Street. In addition to the EAASC, the Auburn Medical Pavilion houses the East Alabama Medical Center Freestanding Emergency Department, as well as diagnostic radiology services, a women’s breast health center and a satellite retail pharmacy called East Alabama Apothecary.
The East Alabama Ambulatory Surgery Center is a joint venture between East Alabama Medical Center and a group of 16 local physicians who perform a variety of surgical procedures in specialties including orthopaedics, ear nose and throat (ENT), plastic surgery, ophthalmology, gastroenterology (GI), and general surgery.

“This facility and joint venture are both a few years in the making, so it’s very exciting to see it finally becoming a reality,” said Laura Grill, East Alabama Health president and CEO. “With our community growing, it was important to provide a more convenient location for residents in the western portion of Lee County as well as other counties in that general area to be able to have outpatient surgery in addition to the other services available inside the Auburn Medical Pavilion.”
The EAASC features a spacious and comfortable lobby and reception area, four operating rooms and four procedure rooms equipped with the latest technology to ensure the best care possible for patients needing minimally invasive outpatient care.
Trent Wilson, M.D., an orthopaedist and chairman of the joint venture managing board, says the physicians in the joint venture are excited to get started. “An outpatient surgery center has been a long time coming in the east Alabama area. The local surgeons who will be operating there are excited to be able to offer high-quality, cost-effective and efficient surgical care in this beautiful, easy-access center in Auburn.”
