Phoebe to Begin Lobby Renovations

Tuesday, April 20th, 2021

Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital will begin Phase II of its Wetherbee Lobby renovations on Tuesday, April 20, 2021. During this phase of renovations, the main entrance will be closed. Patients and visitors will be redirected to a temporary entrance.

“We are very excited to be beginning this next phase of our lobby renovations. Phoebe is committed to providing quality service and experience for all our patients and visitors every time they enter our facility, and that begins at our front doors,” said Joe Austin, Chief Executive Officer, Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital. “We appreciate the community’s patience as we work to enhance our patients’ and visitors’ experience upon entering the hospital.

The renovation project includes replacing the floor, relocating visitor registration closer to the main entrance doors and installation of easy-to-use registration kiosks. The kiosks will allow Phoebe to track the number of visitors entering the facility, which is one of the CDC guidelines for COVID-19 contact tracing.

Patients who have appointments at the Phoebe Cancer Center or any offices in the Medical Towers should still use the Medical Tower Entrance. The renovations only affect the main hospital lobby entrance. For more information and a map, visit phoebehealth.com then click on the Our Locations tab.
