Relocation Positions Cirrus Health for Growth

DALLAS -- Cirrus Health announces that the company’s move to its new corporate headquarters is complete. Previously located in Trophy Club, Texas, Cirrus Health transitioned to the new location in Dallas to position the organization for continued growth initiatives. Now located at 9301 North Central Expressway, Tower II, Suite 360 in Dallas, Cirrus Health is prepared to continue its aggressive growth model for 2007.

“For the past 18 months, we have been adding expertise and restructuring operations within our organization to position ourselves for not only growth, but to continue providing our facilities with the resources, support and proficiency they need to deliver high-quality care to their patients,” stated Tim Parris, chief executive officer of Cirrus Health. “Since my joining Cirrus Health in 2005, we have added clinical service line, physician recruitment, and operational capabilities within our leadership team, and have positioned our leaders to carry out their responsibilities with little bureaucracy. This allows our organization to serve our patients, physicians and facilities efficiently and effectively.”

The new corporate headquarters is located on Central Expressway between Walnut Hill Lane and Park Lane within the North Central Medical Plaza, a five-story 250,000-square-foot medical office building developed by sister company, The Cirrus Group. The new 20,800-square-foot location houses all Cirrus Health executive and support functions.

“Our new office is symbolic of a new chapter in the dynamic growth or our organization,” said John Thomas, president and chief development officer for Cirrus Health. “Throughout 2006, our organization grew from 167 employees to approximately 490, and we increased our presence in California with the addition of an endoscopy center and four short-stay hospitals. We also expanded into the Louisiana market, through the acquisition of Southern Surgical Hospital in Slidell, La. Currently, we are in various stages of development of additional facilities in Arkansas, Arizona, Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Louisiana, and California. 2007 is developing into an even stronger year of growth.”

In partnership with physicians, Cirrus Health currently owns and manages four ambulatory surgery centers: Laguna Hills Surgery Center (Laguna Woods, California), Linden Crest Surgery Center (Beverly Hills, California), Spring Creek Surgery Center (Tomball, Texas), and Surgery Centre at Craig Ranch (McKinney, Texas). Cirrus Health also owns and manages an endoscopy center, Central California Endoscopy Center (Fresno California), as well as, six short-stay hospitals: North Texas Hospital (Denton, Texas), California Heart and Surgical Hospital (Loma Linda, California), Thousand Oaks Surgical Hospital (Thousand Oaks, California.), Fresno Surgical Hospital (Fresno, California), California Center for Healthcare and Biomedical Research (San Jose, California), and Southern Surgical Hospital (Slidell, Louisiana.).
