State-of-the-art healthcare facility opening in November
Inova celebrates new Inova Health Center – Oakville with ribbon cutting
Fairfax, VA – Oct. 31, 2024 – Inova celebrated the grand opening of its new Inova Health Center – Oakville today with a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by local officials, community members, Inova team members and leaders. The state-of-the-art facility is located in Alexandria’s Oakville Triangle across from Potomac Yard.
The Inova Health Center – Oakville will offer a wide range of services, including a full-service emergency department for all ages, outpatient surgery, advanced diagnostic imaging, primary and specialty care, including cardiology, gastroenterology and general surgery. The 24/7/365 emergency room will ensure that the growing population in Alexandria, Arlington and surrounding region has ready access to high-quality care close to home.
“This is a significant milestone in Inova’s commitment to expand access to world-class healthcare across Northern Virginia,” said J. Stephen Jones, MD, FACS, President and CEO of Inova. “The Oakville Health Center will allow us to serve our community with more convenience and accessibility, offering both emergency care and outpatient services under one roof. We are excited to officially open our doors and welcome patients to this state-of-the-art facility.”
The Inova Health Center – Oakville is part of Inova’s broader Eastern Region development plan and is an integral part of its growing network of care. It will complement the services provided by Inova Alexandria Hospital and other Inova facilities throughout the region. The health center was designed with the patient experience in mind, marking a new, welcoming architectural design with modern amenities that enhance the overall patient experience, designed by renowned design firms Ballinger and Ennead Architects. Last month, Inova broke ground on two new hospitals serving its Eastern Region – Inova Alexandria and Inova Franconia-Springfield – which are expected to be completed in 2028.
“The opening of this facility marks a new chapter for healthcare in Alexandria and its surrounding communities,” said Rina Bansal, MD, President of Inova Alexandria Hospital. “With the Oakville Health Center, we are continuing to bring high-quality care to families in a setting designed for comfort and healing. This facility will help us provide comprehensive care and support to even more people in our community.”
Philanthropy plays a crucial role in Inova’s ability to expand and enhance services. The generosity of visionary donors has paved the way for new, innovative care facilities that will expand access to quality healthcare throughout the region.
