Every new surgical facility has a moment when the structure is officially complete. In construction, it's called topping out.

The tradition marks the placement of the final beam at the highest point of a building. The team signs the beam before it's lifted into place, and an American flag often flies alongside it. It's a way to recognize the people who built the structure and celebrate the progress to come.

For Solara, a topping out is more than a construction milestone. It means physician partners are one step closer to a facility built around how they practice, and patients are one step closer to high-quality outpatient care close to home.

Thank you to the builders, partners and crews who make these moments possible.

66.5% of ASCs are still independently owned. But independence has a shelf life when the founding partners are all the same age and no one younger holds equity.

An ASC administrator in New York put it plainly to Becker's: "Suddenly they wake up one day, and all the doctors are 70 and they never let anybody younger buy in." His concern was that some centers in his state simply will not exist in five years.

The pattern is familiar. A physician group builds a successful center over 15 to 20 years, and the ownership structure never changes. Younger surgeons see buy-ins north of $500,000, carry significant training debt, and increasingly question whether the burden of ownership is worth it. The founding partners, meanwhile, have no transition plan because they have never needed one.

Then retirement arrives, and the only buyer at the table is a corporate platform with a five-to-seven-year hold strategy. The center survives, but physician ownership does not.

This is a planning conversation, not a transaction. The centers that stay physician-owned through a generational transition are the ones that start the succession conversation early, structure buy-ins that younger surgeons can actually reach, and bring in a management partner whose job is to make independence sustainable rather than temporary.

We have spent more than 20 years working alongside physician-owners at every stage of the ASC lifecycle. Preserving physician ownership through the next generation is not a side benefit of what we do. It is the point.

We're excited to share a look at the latest construction progress at Wiregrass Surgery Center in Florida!

With the building taking shape and each new milestone bringing us closer to completion, it's exciting to see the vision for this facility become a reality.

We're grateful for the hard work and collaboration of everyone involved in bringing this project to life and look forward to sharing more updates as construction continues.

We talk a lot about growth in healthcare.

More locations. More procedures. More partnerships.

But growth only matters if it creates something better.

Better access for patients.
Better environments for physicians.
Better support for teams.
Better care in the communities we serve.
That’s the kind of growth we’re interested in.

Some milestones are worth putting your name on.

From the first plans to the final details, bringing an ASC to completion takes an incredible amount of collaboration, problem-solving, and commitment from everyone involved.

Seeing the signatures left behind at Wiregrass Ranch ASC is a small reminder of the people and partnerships behind the facility itself.

We’re proud to help bring another surgical environment across the finish line and look forward to everything that happens inside these walls next.

The best surgical experience starts long before the patient enters the OR.

It’s the credentialing handled. The right people in place. Contracts negotiated. Systems working. Problems solved before they become distractions.

Because when the business of an ASC works the way it should, physicians and clinical teams can keep their focus where it belongs: on their patients.

That’s the work behind the work.

People. Partnerships. Performance.
