The Center for Community Health also features suites for gastroenterology and endoscopy, multispecialty medical and surgical services and a diagnostic imaging center that includes PET-CT and MRI modalities. It has a valet-staffed parking facility, grab-and-go cafe, conference center, comfortable sky lobby waiting areas and staff dedicated to helping patients and visitors navigate the building.

The Center for Community Health is also pursuing a LEED Silver rating.
