Project Synopsis

The new ambulatory surgery center, to be located at the corner of the newly remodeled intersection of 48th and X streets will be called the “48X Complex,” reflecting its location at the corner of 48th and X Streets in Sacramento. 

Project Description

Expected to open for patients in July 2025, the four-story, 268,228 square foot “48X Complex” will help to address the shortage of ambulatory operating room capacity at the main hospital. This project is envisioned to support a preliminary program of 14 operating rooms, 59 pre- and post-operative recovery bays, 14 single occupant 23-hour recovery rooms, 96 clinical exam rooms, and 19 clinical treatment rooms. The building will also include public spaces, clinical support, operations space (sterilization, pharmacy, etc.) imaging space, physical therapy space as well as administration support space to facilitate patient support and education.
