Gephart was the design-assist electrical contractor for this new five-floor addition with surgical suites, imaging centers, an intensive care unit, a critical care unit, education rooms, a new atrium lobby, and a two-story parking garage addition.
Our Work
As the design-assist contractor, Gephart’s contributions included:
