Outpatient services will open on Sept. 14, followed by the cancer and digestive hospital on Sept. 17 and women’s hospital on Sept. 21. Hoag’s expansion efforts are expected to continue with its $207 million winning bid of the Ziggurat property in July. The new women’s hospital will also include a 17-bed Level III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), bringing advanced newborn care to Hoag’s Irvine campus for the first time. 1 birther, Hoag is also regarded as the highest-volume breast cancer care provider in California, screening more than 55,000 women a year at its imaging centers across OC. One of the facility’s features is an urgent care for cancer patients undergoing radiation and chemotherapy who may be too immunocompromised to visit the emergency room.
