Integrated Technology
12,000 SF of the first floor is the new Neurosciences Procedural Suite featuring the ARTIS icono biplane for neuro interventional therapies, minimally invasive technology used to diagnose and treat stroke and other neurological conditions.
"The rooms are first class, and I think it’s the most beautiful space in the hospital. The patient rooms and procedural spaces are all state of the art, and many of the new hires say that was a big draw. It has enhanced our ability to recruit.”
Dr. James McKinney | Medical Director of the Novant Health Neurosciences Institute in the Coastal region
