A new outpatient surgical center is up and running in Grand Rapids.

Grand Rapids Surgical Suites officially opened last month after its receipt of a license from the State of Michigan, certifying the completion of all requirements from the Michigan Department of Health.

The ambulatory surgical center is located at 2505 E. Paris Ave. SE.

Grand Rapids Surgical Suites partnered with SurgCenter Development, a national developer of ambulatory surgical centers, on the location. Grand Rapids Surgical Suites is SurgCenter Development's second center in Michigan.

The 6,600-square-foot independent surgical center features one operating room, two minor procedure rooms and modern equipment to provide a convenient option for outpatient surgery.

The staff includes 11 local surgeons who specialize in orthopedic, oculoplastic and ear, nose and throat and surgery.
