Vestavia Medical Plaza Breaks Ground

A new medical plaza in Vestavia is officially under construction on Old Montgomery Highway.

VESTAVIA HILLS, AL - Ground was broken last week for a new 40,000-square foot medical plaza in Vestavia Hills, a project that should be operational by November 2019. Dr. Swaid Swaid, a neurosurgeon who performs procedures at both Grandview Medical Center and Brookwood Hospital while holding a private practice in Vestavia, is overseeing the facility.

The facility will be located at 1021 Old Montgomery Highway, the former home of Party Time, according to a Vestavia Voice report. The center will include an ambulatory surgical center, a diagnostic center and office space for the 12 physicians.

The facility is expected to provide between 40 and 50 jobs, and Swaid hopes it will create an economic impact in the city through bringing new employees into Vestavia who will spend money in city limits and through patients who will spend time and money in Vestavia.
