The 600-acre project, which will be owned by the developer, will include new medical office buildings, a hospital and a multiuse senior and assisted living facility.

Whitetail Land Development has committed to giving 15 of the 600 acres to the medical center as a gift.

The first phase of construction, which includes the new medical office buildings, will begin in the summer of 2012. Construction of the hospital will start sometime after 2016.

The Medical Center plans to lease office space in several of the new buildings totaling about 40,000 square feet.

“Our goal is to create a modern and convenient medical complex that will serve the needs of the people of Cleveland,” said Mike Duncum, project manager of Whitetail Land Development.

Cleveland Regional Medical Center is a 107-bed medical-surgical acute care facility located in Cleveland, Texas. The hospital employs over 270 people, including 57 active physicians and offers a full spectrum of medical and diagnostic services.

“The facility we have right now is fantastic, but the chance to bring a brand new, technologically sophisticated hospital to serve the people of Cleveland is extremely exciting,” said Patrick Ayers, president of New Directions Health Systems. “We already have top of the line employees and excellent physicians. Now we just need to build facilities that match their talent levels.”
