HealthPartners will build a neuroscience care center in St. Paul.
The new center, HealthPartners said, will be the largest freestanding neuroscience center in the Upper Midwest, and will bring together several types of neurological care.
"It'll help us really coordinate all of neurosciences under one roof," said Dr. Bret Haake, assistant medical director of neurosciences at HealthPartners. "[It] really will help give people a destination to know where to go to if they have numbness, weakness or brain-, spine- or nerve-related diseases."
The health system says construction will begin next spring in St. Paul between Regions Hospital and HealthPartners' specialty clinic.
HealthPartners said about 45 people have been involved in planning for the building. Officials did not know how many construction jobs the project will create. The center is slated for completion in early 2017.
