“LeChase is gratified to continue our partnership with United Health Services to help advance healthcare throughout the region,” said Project Executive Paul Klinko. “With our vast experience and deep expertise in building and renovating hospitals and other healthcare facilities, we understand the importance of applying the highest standards of construction to ensure patient safety and comfort.” LeChase, which is headquartered in Rochester, NY, with an office in Armonk, NY, also recently completed renovations and construction of the new tower at the UHS Wilson Medical Center in Johnson City, NY. That expansion received a 2025 Regional Best Project award in the healthcare category from ENR New York.

According to UHS, the Delaware Valley expansion is designed to transform care delivery in the region by uniting advanced services, modern technology and a patient-centered environment under one roof. The project is supported by a $20 million grant from the New York State Department of Health through the Statewide Health Care Facility Transformation Program. UHS said the addition will consolidate a wide range of services that include: primary medical care, specialty medical services, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, laboratory and blood-draw services, building services and support functions. These services are now provided in buildings located throughout the campus along Stockton Avenue (Route 206). Once the Medical Neighborhood is completed, crews will raze the current primary care building.
