Catawba Valley Health System broke ground June 29 on the construction of
a new Medical Office Building in Sherrills Ford that will feature a family
practice and space for as many as three other tenants. Summit Healthcare
Group LLC, the project developer, expects completion by Summer 2022. The
address is 3900 Terrell Park Drive in The Village at Sherrills Ford, a
206-acre mixed-use project representing a $100 million investment in that
rapidly growing area.
The new construction will be the new home to what is currently called
Catawba Valley Family Medicine–Southeast Catawba. It is one of 17
primary care practices under the umbrella of Catawba Valley Medical Group,
the branch of CVHS that operates all of the health system’s primary
care, specialty care and urgent care practices. Once relocated, the practice
will be rebranded as Catawba Valley Family Medicine–Sherrills Ford.
The new building will span nearly 20,000 square feet and is designed to
accommodate MRI, Mammography, or similar mobile imaging services. The
location gives easy access to major thoroughfares such as I-77 and Highway
16 Bypass connecting to both Hickory and Charlotte.
“Having a presence in Sherrills Ford has long been a part of our
strategic plan to provide family care to a growing area of our county,”
said Eddie Beard, President and CEO of CVHS. “We are especially
grateful for the tireless efforts of Barbara Beatty, county commissioner
and CVHS trustee, who helped lead the vision to invest in this exciting
new project. We anticipate that our new state-of-the-art facility will
help us serve this community for decades to come.”
Among those in attendance for the announcement included Catawba County
Commissioners, CVHS Board of Trustees members, representatives from Catawba
Medical Foundation, members of the Catawba County Chamber of Commerce,
staff from Catawba Valley Family Medicine-Southeast Catawba, special guests
from the Sherrills Ford community, Summit Healthcare Group leaders, and
representatives from the David E. Looper Company, which is serving as
contractor for the project.
The Southeast Catawba practice that will relocate to this new facility
features Elizabeth Restino, MD, Miles Saenger, PA-C, and Rebecca Stolorena,
PA-C. The practice gives pediatric and adult care, as well as delivering
women’s services. Providers manage acute and chronic illnesses,
treat acute injuries, perform minor office surgeries and, when necessary,
give references for appropriate specialist care. More info can be found at
