The Good Samaritan Western Ridge Ambulatory Campus is about to get a lot bigger.

Tri-Health says it will spend $56.6 million to expand its Green Township location by 88,000-square feet. This will increase access in both primary care and specialty services like the Cancer and Heart Institutes.

"Health care consumers increasingly want convenient access to high-quality programs and services," said TriHealth President and CEO Mark C. Clement said in a statement. "By expanding the Good Samaritan Western Ridge campus, we are creating a health care destination for the west side community offering much needed primary care, as well as our nationally recognized cancer and cardiovascular programs, in addition to our full range of Outpatient and Emergency Department Services currently available."

As part of the project, there will be a two-story addition on the side of the existing building, according to a release.

Overall, the expansion will house 14 new primary care physicians --  adding to the largest primary care physician network in the region -- and 17 new specialists in cancer, heart, endocrinology and cosmetic surgery.

It's expected to open in the winter of 2020. Site excavation and land prep has already started.
