In January, Boston Children’s North held a dedication and flag raising ceremony for the new Ambulatory Care Clinic located in in Peabody, MA. G. Greene Construction broke ground in early December, 2009. The new clinic is the first phase of construction within the 1,000,000 S/F warehouse. Attending the ceremony were CEO and COO of Children's Hospital Boston, Dr. James Mandell and Sandra Fenwick, Congressman John Tierney and hospital staff from both Peabody and Boston. Dr. Mandell spoke about the importance of bringing the same high quality care that is offered in Boston to the North Shore. The new facility will offer a convenient and welcoming environment for patients and family who had previously made the long trip back and forth to Boston.
